Which was the lowest class in Japanese feudalisim?

The lowest class in Japanese feudalism was the "eta," often referred to as outcasts or untouchables. They were marginalized and faced significant discrimination, working in occupations considered impure, such as leatherworking or handling the dead.

Their status reflected the broader societal norms and values of feudal Japan.
