[[folder: Bourgeoisie]]

In 19th-century Socialist terms, these are those who live by investment, profession and trade, and they (appropriately) live in the main town of [[MeaningfulName Montsou]]. Note that, in European terms, though some can be quite wealthy, none of them are literally aristocrats.

[[folder: Proleteriat]]

Literally "propertyless." The concept comes from Ancient Rome. In Socialist terms this means that they derive their income from labor, especially unskilled manual labor.
