The people of Aramil are divided into two distinct classes.  The Laborer class, which makes up about 80% of the population, and the Governor class which holds almost every public office.  The Laborer class is kept in poverty because of a contract with I.C.S. that places them in a harsh labor system with almost no chance of social mobility.
