What are the classes of people in the 1800s?
There were several classifications under upper and lower classes in the 1800s. The highest group were those who were considered to be the aristocracy of the United States, these were wealthy, educated men, many of whom were the Founding Fathers. Next came the landed gentry, although not on the same level as the east coast aristocracy, they still had enough wealth to afford a very genteel lifestyle. Next were the members of the lower, working classes and the small farmers. Though not necessarily destitute, they still have to work very hard to provide the necessities for them and their families. The next lower class encompassed the indentured servants and the landless. These people were just a step above slaves, and had no income until the debt they were working off had been paid in full. At the bottom of the hierarchy were the slaves who had no income, no social status, and in many ways weren't even considered to be human beings.
What problems did Rome face after the win over Carthage?
A consequence of the Second Punic war and the enslavement of 50,000 Carthaginians when Rome destroyed Carthage in the Third Punic War (146 BC) and of 150,000 Epirotes after the Third Macedonian War (168 BC) was that many small farmers lost their land. The Roman army was a levy of small farmers who returned to their farms after a military campaigning season. Prolonged military service beyond a single campaigning season in the Second Punic War caused many of these farmers to have to neglect their farms. The owners of large landed estates took advantage of this to buy land on the cheap. The flood of slaves on the slave market in Rome provided these large landowners with an ample supply of labour. The greater number of slaves were bought by them. Abundant salve labour made the expansion of their estates easier. As a result, many small farmers lost their land. This had two ramifications. One was that the dispossessed farmers flocked to Rome to eke out a living, swelling the masses on unemployed or underemployed poor. The other were shortages of recruits for the army because soldiers had to own land. These problems were tackled by Tiberius Gracchus who introduced a land reform to redistribute land to the landless poor (133 BC) and Gaius Gracchus, who in 122 BC introduced a grain dole in which the state distributed grain to the poor at subsidised prices (later it was given for free). The land reform was insufficient. Eventually, in 107 BC Gaius Marius abolished the property threshold for the military levy, made joining the army voluntary and open to the landless poor to overcome the mentioned shortages. The poor flocked to the army for a career, a pay and the grant of a plot of land to farm on discharge. Another problem was in Spain. After the Romans defeated the Carthaginians in Spain during the Second Punic War they took over their territories in the south and much of the east coast. After the war Rome decided to remain in Spain and created two Roman provinces there. This caused continuous resistance against the Roman presence in Spain by the local tribes. The Romans had to fight countless battles and lost many thousands of men. Because of this many soldiers stayed in Spain for six years and after this they had to be resettled. The high death toll also made many young men reluctant to join the levy. At times they found excuses to dodge it. This made the recruitment shortages worse.

What was the distribution of wealth in colonial Maryland?
In the English American colonies, the white southern planters were the wealthiest. Their wealth was double that of the Northern colonies. They tended to own more land and have slaves. The Northern landowners were far from poor, however, and the standard of living and average wealth per person in the colonies eclipsed that of their British counterparts. The disparity of wealth was in terms of land. Landowners tended to be wealthy, whereas the landless, who were usually poor farmers, indentured servants or slaves, were at the bottom of the colonial hierarchy.
