The social hierarchy of the Incas ranked people according to their importance. Inca society had a well-defined structure with the Sapa Inca (the emperor) at the top, followed by nobility, priests, and then commoners. Nobles and the ruling class held significant power and privileges, while commoners were primarily farmers and laborers. Each level of the hierarchy had its own roles and responsibilities, reflecting their importance within the society.
