The caste system is a hierarchical social structure in South Asia in which individuals are born into a specific caste that determines their social status, occupation, and opportunities in life. It is traditionally divided into four main castes: Brahmins (priests and scholars), Kshatriyas (warriors and rulers), Vaishyas (merchants and traders), and Shudras (laborers and servants). Below these four castes are the Dalits (formerly known as Untouchables) who are considered to be outside the caste system and face significant discrimination.
