Detailed explanation-1: -Records of each class were kept, and being wealthy was often not enough to move up through the classes. There were three basic divisions in Roman society: citizens, noncitizens and slaves.
Detailed explanation-2: -Patricians and plebeians. Traditionally, patrician refers to members of the upper class, while plebeian refers to lower class.

Detailed explanation-3: -At any time in Roman history, individual Romans knew with certainty that they belonged to a specific social class: Senator, Equestrian, Patrician, Plebeian, Slave, Free. In some cases they were born into that class.
