Which group is not TRULY a part of the Caste System? *
Law Incorporation [45]
The Varna system in Dharma-shastras divides society into four varnas (Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishya and Shudras). Those who fall out of this system because of their grievous sins are ostracised as outcastes (untouchables) and considered outside the varna system. The system which divides Hindus into rigid hierarchical groups based on their karma (work) and dharma (the Hindi word for religion, but here it means duty) is generally accepted to be more than 3,000 years old.

How did caste come about?

Manusmriti , widely regarded to be the most important and authoritative book on Hindu law and dating back to at least 1,000 years before Christ was born, "acknowledges and justifies the caste system as the basis of order and regularity of society".

The caste system divides Hindus into four main categories - Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas and the Shudras. Many believe that the groups originated from Brahma, the Hindu God of creation. At the top of the hierarchy were the Brahmins who were mainly teachers and intellectuals and are believed to have come from Brahma's head. Then came the Kshatriyas, or the warriors and rulers, supposedly from his arms. The third slot went to the Vaishyas, or the traders, who were created from his thighs. At the bottom of the heap were the Shudras, who came from Brahma's feet and did all the menial jobs.

The main castes were further divided into about 3,000 castes and 25,000 sub-castes, each based on their specific occupation.

Outside of this Hindu caste system were the achhoots - the Dalits or the untouchables.

How does caste work?

For centuries, caste has dictated almost every aspect of Hindu religious and social life, with each group occupying a specific place in this complex hierarchy.

Rural communities have long been arranged on the basis of castes - the upper and lower castes almost always lived in segregated colonies, the water wells were not shared, Brahmins would not accept food or drink from the Shudras, and one could marry only within one's caste.

In 1997, Microsoft was accused of using a monopoly in operating systems to control the market for _____.
andreev551 [17]

... the market for web browser market.

At the beginning of the 1990s, Microsoft bundled its Internet Explorer web browser within its Windows operating system which helped it acquire a dominant position in the web browser market. From Microsoft’s point of view, putting these two products together was a way to be “user-friendly” for those consumers that were not computer savvy.   The company reasoned that due to innovation and competition, both products had become essentially one, and thanks to this synergy it provided consumers with double the benefits for free.  Competitors, such as Netscape, stated that the browser was a distinct and separate product so there was no reason for it to be automatically bundled with its operating system. Further, Microsoft was accused of altering its application programming interfaces to favor Internet Explorer.

Why would the Soviet Union want to kill Ramius instead of letting him defect?
Mumz [18]

Answer:The death of his wife is the reason

Explanation:

I suspect that as an experienced cold war warrior he also appreciated that a tactical nuclear submarine that was virtually undetectable would shift the balance too far from the stalemate that was required for world peace.
