Answer:

Peasants commonly wore clothes made of hemp, wool, and ferret skins and many fell into debt and were forced to work as farming tenants for wealthy landlords. Each successive rank gave its holder greater pensions and legal privileges. Do u people like it... this was my ss h/w question, i'm in class 603 :) :) :) :) <3 <3

~The classes only divided people into social rank. They did not indicate wealth or power. For instance, even though peasants made up the second highest class, they were poor. Many merchants, on the other hand, were wealthy and powerful despite being in the lowest class
