Thanks :) ? How did someone earn “middle class” status? What makes the middle class different from the other classes? How much work would someone in the middle class have to do?

In those 5 minutes between when I posted those search results with MANY articles explaining about the Victorian era middle class, how much did you read? Your questions would be answered if you read several of those linked articles.

Read all of this, <u>very carefully</u> ... take notes if you have to.
<i>The term was used from around the mid-eighteenth century to describe <b>those people below the aristocracy but above the workers.</b> As a social category, the 'middling sort' always referred to a broad band of the population, but this diversity increased in the nineteenth century. Alongside the businessmen associated with the growth of manufacturing, the period saw the increased numbers of small entrepreneurs. Shopkeepers and merchants who undertook to transport and retail the fruits of industry and empire. The increased scale of industry and oversees trade, together with the expansion of empire fuelled the proliferation of commerce and finance such as banks, insurance companies, shipping and railways. This system needed administrating by clerks, managers and salaried professionals. The expansion of cities, towns and the economy produced new spaces that needing regulating and running. The Victorian period witnessed the massive expansion of local government and the centralised state, providing occupations for a vast strata of civil servants, teachers, doctors, lawyers and government officials as well as the clerks and assistants which helped these institutions and services to operate.</i>
