The lowest of the two classes was the "masses", or "Indios". This class included all poor commoners, peasants and laborers. Unlike the "principalia" class, where the members enjoyed high public offices and recommendations from the King of Spain, the masses only enjoyed a few civil rights and privileges. The highest political office that they could possibly hold was the "gobernadorcillo", or the town executive. The members of Katipunan, the secret organization that would trigger the revolution, mainly consisted of the masses.
