judged by their financial situation as well as the way they dress,
and entwined with family honor.Social class is very apparent in
Egypt since it determines your access to power and position.Your
class determines the kind of opportunities you will have as well as
your daily life.You are born into your class and has less to do
with money than class has to do with Family.There is little social
mobility.
