jan 1, 1550 - Bourgeoisie (1550)
Description:
Generally thought of as anyone owning capital. This group of people held great power when forming groups to sway governments, or instill social changes. They are more important to mention than those of the working poor because often the bourgeoisie held enough power to make changes where the working poor did not. (Palmer 116)
