Plato thinks human society mirrors the structure of the soul. He divides people into three social classes, depending on which part of the soul predominates. In a just society, each class has its corresponding virtue.
Which of these is NOT one of Plato's three social classes?
{ 1 } - the warrior class (which needs courage)
{ 2 } - the ruling class (which should guide society and be strong in wisdom)
{ 3 } - the working class (which needs self-control)
{ 4 } - the royalty class (which has descended from royalty and needs proper refinement)
