Were small amounts of privileged members rule over peasants usually. Lots of time they were born into power.See 16-18th century Poland, all of Europe mostly in the middle ages etc. The opposite of democracy. Roots came from the ancient Greeks. The French revolution was mainly focused on stopping the aristocratic government in France by letting every person have a political influence to some degree. Basically a bunch of glorified pricks ruling due to wealth or being born into the position of power ruling and being dicks to everyone else.
Peasant 1: I like food
Peasant 2: me too, I wish I was born into power

Peasant 1: stupid Greeks making this aristocracy
Peasant 2: who are Greeks?
Aristocrat 1: fuckith all the peasants due to my born rights to rule

"The main difference between a traditional and a conservative is that the former believes in transcendent values, while the latter preserves the values of the bourgeois revolution and its consequences. Therefore, one should not confuse Traditional Aristocracy with Conservative Oligarchy."
