Solution

The correct option is B Plebeians
The Roman society was divided into Patricians and Plebeians. The Patricians or the landlords possessed a lot of political power. They formed an institution called the Senate which advised the Kings of the empire. These landlords had the Plebeians under them. The plebeians had no political rights and had to accept the status of a slave.
