      The social structures of empires displayed hierarchies that included cultivators, laborers, slaves, artisans, merchants, elites, or caste groups.

      Social Hierarchy of the Roman Empire.
      http://images.slideplayer.com/29/9435785/slides/slide_2.jpg

      The oldest means of becoming a slave was to be captured as an enemy in war. However, even a foreigner could become free again and even a Roman citizen could become a slave.

      Slavery was hereditary, and the child of a slave woman became a slave no matter who the father was. However, according to classical law, a child of a slave became free (ingenuus),

      if her mother was free, even for a short period of time, during the pregnancy.

      After the Punic wars, Rome started the mass exploitation of slaves. However, the development of industry, trade and other branches of economy required skilled free workers that

      took interest in their jobs. A slave could get free by the act of manumission, by which a master would release him from his authority. Manumissions were different in different epochs.

      According to Roman law, slaves that were freed (libertinus, in regard to his master libertus) became Roman citizens, but they had many fewer rights than Roman citizens that were

      born free (ingenuus). The slave’s former master now became his patron (patronus), and the libertus still had obligations towards him (this was regulated by law). The libertus had to be

      obedient and respectful to his patron (obsequium et reverentia). The patron could punish a disobedient libertus, In older times he could even kill him (ius vitae necisque), but later he

      could not. In some circumstances he could even ask a magistrate to turn the libertus into a slave once again (accusatio ingrati).

      Demography:

      Estimates for the prevalence of slavery in the Roman Empire vary. Estimates of the percentage of the population of Italy who were slaves range from 30 to 40 percent in the 1st

      century BC, upwards of two to three million slaves in Italy by the end of the 1st century BCE, about 35% to 40% of Italy’s population. For the Empire as a whole, the slave

      population has been estimated at just under five million, representing 8-10% of the total population of 50-60 million+ inhabitants. An estimated 49% of all slaves were owned by the elite,

      who made up less than 1.5% of the Empire’s population. About half of all slaves worked in the countryside where they were a small percentage of the population except on some large

      agricultural, espically imperial, estates; the remainder the other half were a significant percentage 25% or more in towns and cities as domestics and workers in commercial

      enterprises and manufactories.

      Roman slavery was not based on race. Slaves were drawn from all over Europe and the Mediterranean, including Gaul, Hispania, Germany, Britannia, the Balkans, Greece etc.

      Generally slaves in Italy were indigenous Italians, with a minority of foreigners (including both slaves and freedmen) born outside of Italy estimated at 5% of the total in the capital,

      where their number was largest, at its peak. Those from outside of Europe were predominantly of Greek descent, while the Jewish ones never fully assimilated into Roman society,

      remaining an identifiable minority. The slaves (especially the foreigners) had higher mortality rates and lower birth rates than natives, and were sometimes even subjected to mass

      expulsions. The average recorded age at death for the slaves of the city of Rome was extraordinarily low: seventeen and a half years (17.2 for males; 17.9 for females)

      Debt slavery
      Nexum was a debt bondage contract in the early Roman Republic. Within the Roman legal system, it was a form of mancipatio. Though the terms of the contract would vary,

      essentially a free man pledged himself as a bond slave (nexus) as surety for a loan. He might also hand over his son as collateral. Although the bondsman could expect to face

      humiliation and some abuse, as a legal citizen he was supposed to be exempt from corporal punishment. Nexum was abolished by the Lex Poetelia Papiria in 326 BC, in part to

      prevent abuses to the physical integrity of citizens who had fallen into debt bondage.
      Cicero considered the abolition of nexum primarily a political maneuver to appease the common people (plebs): the law was passed during the Conflict of the Orders, when plebeians

      were struggling to establish their rights in relation to the hereditary privileges of the patricians. Although nexum was abolished as a way to secure a loan, debt bondage might still result

      after a debtor defaulted.

      Second, expansion also led to the great enrichment of the Roman upper class, for it was they who naturally captured the vast majority of its spoils. Huge amounts of precious jewels,

      gold, silver, slaves and other riches were brought back to Rome and put in the coffers of its wealthy citizens. True, your average Roman soldier got away with some loot, too, but

      given the cost of leaving behind the family farm or artisan enterprise to go campaigning for years on end, it is little wonder that war swiftly became a losing proposition — at least for the

      poor.

      In fact, Rome’s vaunted citizen soldiers would often come back to find that inflation and the increase in size of slave-worked aristocratic estates made not just their war loot, but their

      old livelihood, too, economically worthless. Crushed by the spoils-fueled growth in the wealth of Rome’s super rich, this vital sector of Roman society — its propertied, smallholder

      middle class — withered and died, becoming in the process that dreaded of all urban cohorts of antiquity — the mob.

      Roman citizenship was extended to all free men throughout the Empire, and Roman law was administered in every court. In this period of peace Christianity had an opportunity to

      grow slowly, in spite of repeated waves of persecution instigated by some of the emperors. In the reign of Constantine the Great it became the official faith of the Roman Empire.

      Finally the Christian religion spread throughout the Western world.

      The “Roman peace” (Pax Romana) extended over the civilized world. Even the most remote lands were ransacked in order to supply the wealthy Roman citizens with luxuries and

      delicacies. Art and letters were prized and fostered. In this era, however, there were signs that the national character was decaying.

      The fundamental seriousness (gravitas) which had characterized the conduct of ancient Romans was gone. The old reverence for the family, for the state, and for the gods was gone

      as well. Prosperity had brought corruption with it. In place of Brutus offering up his sons on the altar of duty to the state, there was Nero murdering his mother and his wife at the

      prompting of Poppaea.

      The passion for a life of luxurious ease existed in all classes. The rich amused themselves by giving splendid feasts. The poor had their panem et circenses—that is, free bread and free
      shows. Slave labor had degraded the once sturdy peasantry to the status of serfs or beggars. The middle class, which once had been the backbone of the nation, had almost
      disappeared. In Roman society there were only the rich and the very poor.

      After the reign of Diocletian the Empire was under an absolute one-man rule. Society became stagnant—politically, industrially, and mentally.

      A pillar of the oligarchical system is the family fortune, or fondo as it is called in Italian. The continuity of the family fortune which earns money through usury and looting is often more
      important than the biological continuity across generations of the family that owns the fortune.

      Rome, at least temporarily, did not suffer unduly from the death of its former middle class, as it swiftly converted from a system of citizen soldiering to a professional, standing army.

      No longer was service necessarily the guaranteed future of either the Roman poor or rich. Instead, a class of professional officers, long-term service troops and public bureaucrats

      and contractors tasked with maintaining the empire and paid out of the coffers of the republic and, importantly, out of the loot given out by successful generals, emerged as the true

      source of Roman military power. They were fearsome. Given time, they could defeat almost any enemy the ancient world could throw against them.

      One should now be able to see how expansion crippled Rome’s Republican institutions. What had once been a tightly-bound society of ethnic kin allied with one another against the

      rest of the world turned into a loosely bound society of competing cultural identities tied together via imperial domination and money. Being Roman eventually meant being whatever

      wealth said it was, and shorn of the old ties that kept the rich and poor together out of a mutual sense of common destiny, they soon turned on one another.

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Empire
      The Latin word ordo (plural ordines) refers to a social distinction that is translated variously into English as “class, order, rank,” none of which is exact. One purpose of the Roman

      census was to determine the ordo to which an individual belonged. The two highest ordines in Rome were the senatorial and equestrian. Outside Rome, the decurions, also known as

      curiales (Greek bouleutai), were the top governing ordo of an individual city.
