We have learned that Gem Homeworld has a strict caste system, where each Gem has a predetermined place in the social pyramid, each with their own role and privleges. I found this to be very interesting, so let's explore this.

Pearls- Pearls are meant to be servants or maides, and their only duty is to serve & obey. An example of this when Yellow D's Pearl is shown to be her secretary. They are also a status symbol, and a gem who "owns" must be high on the caste. I think it's possible for some Quartz Soldiers like Jasper to own Pearls because of their elite warrior status. Multiple comments from Pearl & Peridot say that Pearl's aren't meant for engineering & fighting.

Peridots- They're technicians and kindergarteners"Possibly supervisors for the kindergarten projects" they're also might be scientists for HomeWorld as well. The Crystal Gem Peridot has shown that Peridot probably aren't made for combat either.

Quartz- Elite Soldiers/escorts/ or body guards. with Offensive(Jasper) or Defensive(Rose) weapons & powers. Tall, Broad Shouldered, and Intimidating. They also have long wild hair and plump lips.

Rubies- low level grunts, escorts, and body guards

Sapphires- possible military strategists, commanding officers, & counselors.

Fusions- Weapons or power boosts, accorind to Homeworld.

Lapis Lazuli's- gems probaly under the rule of Blue Diamond, who might be powerful soldiers seeing as how Lapis was able to fight the Crystal gems, and with just willpower able to hold back her & Jasper's fusion.

Well what do you think?
