Goods, Services, and Taxes
Luxurious silks,
spices
,
incense
, and the like counted among the Byzantine and early Islamic period’s most desired goods. Silk was particularly prized by both the Byzantine and
Sasanian courts
. Significant quantities of it outside the Middle East attest to the material’s inherently high value and to the reach of its appeal.

Creoles- people born in South America but with 2 peninsular as parents.
Mestizos- (me, and most people in modern South America) were people born with one peninsular and a native or a creole.
Mulattoes- were people born of a peninsular and a person from Africa, who were usually there to work on the sugar cane plantations, these children were usually illegitimate.
In modern South America these distinctions are not as clear but are present, people "cleaner" (not my words, but a kind of slur) live in big cities while mulattoes and some mestizos live on the outskirts and the countryside.
Back in the day they were there to separate the population in order to stop alliances, it worked but was a cruel way to oppress people and eventually led to massive bloodshed.
