1. King: The king was the absolute head of the ruling system. The king was in charge of divide the land among the monarchy and the church. Also, he was the one that named lords and knights. Moreover, all the members of the kingdom had to pay the king for the right to use the land through money or goods.    

2. Lords: This class was made of powerful landowners and the heads of the church. On the one hand, the king was in charge of providing financial aid to the members of this class. On the other hand, both lords and church members rewarded this help to the king by keeping the population under control and ensuring the loyalty towards him.  

3. Knights: They were the last link in the chain of nobility. Basically, they were in charge of ensuring the land control of the lords and of providing military aid to the monarchy.      

4. Bourgeoisie: During the 15th Century, a new social class appeared in Europe: the bourgeoisie. This class was neither part of the monarchy nor the church. In fact, the bourgeoisie comprised merchants and agricultural industrials.  

5. Peasants: They were the last part of the social class system. Most of the peasants were farmers and worked on the lands that were the property of the king or the lords, for that reason they had to pay for the use of it. Therefore, they lived in extreme poverty.

Answer:

The United States helped establish a democratic government focused on economic growth in South Korea.

Explanation:

South Korea, officially named as Republic of Korea, is a country located on the southern part of the Korean Peninsula between the Japanese Sea and the Yellow Sea.

From 1910 to 1945, the whole Korean peninsula was ruled by Japan. After World War II, Korea was divided into two occupation zones by the United States and the Soviet Union, which in turn laid the foundations for today's two Korean states.

On June 20, 1950, North Korea, supported by the People's Republic of China and the Soviet Union, invaded the South, causing the so-called Korean War, a war conflict with two million victims, effectively interrupted in 1953, although the its conclusion has not yet been officially declared despite military agreements made in 2018. During this war, America led a UN coalition force, which militarily supported South Korea.

Nowadays, South Korea has one of the world's fastest growing economies. It is Asia's third largest economy and the world's 12th largest, and is considered one of the Four Asian Tigers. South Korea is also considered a high-income country and is a member of the G20.
