The correct answer is D) Both had a social class system.

The Aztecs and ancient Egyptians were alike in that both had a social class system.

Both great civilizations had a strict social structure. Aztecs had the nobles(the pipiltin in Nahuatl) were military leaders. priests, and government officials, the commoners (macehualtin) were merchants, farmers, and artisans. The lowest of the structures were the serfs and the slaves.

At the very top of the Ancient Egypt pyramid was the Pharoh, then the government officials, soldiers, the scribes, merchants, craftsmen, peasants, and slaves.
