But the Russian population at that time was divided into four classes: nobles, businessmen, Cossacks and peasants. Ethnic minorities such as Caucasians and Tatars are called foreigners. Among Russians, 8 1.6% are farmers, 9.3% are businessmen, 6.2% are soldiers, and only 0.9% are nobles (0.6%) and clergy (0.3%).
