no caste for hindus? 4 tenets a solution? or maybe labour doctrine?

i noticed there are no castes for hindus. maybe this shows that there need to be 4 tenets, allowing for the developers to add more specific details for each religion. and allowing the player to remove unwanted characteristcs of a religion when making a new one.

caste could give caste traits for hindus . renoving caste would anger hindus of high caste and make low caste hindus happy.

or maybe the solution is on doctrines, not on tenets.

maybe the same could be applied for a doctrine regarding slavery. end of slavery would make slavers angry and former slaves happy. slavery, serfdom , caste maybe could even be doctrines instead of tenets,. the most advanced labour doctrine would be trade society, which would make some characters have the burgueois trait.

Alternatively, it might make sense to tie the Caste System to Culture rather than Religion? The Caste System tended to cut across religious lines, even when Non-Dharmic religions got involved.

in civilization 4. caste system is based on "labour" civics. my idea is to make the caste system part of a labour doctrine. same as slave-based, feudal-based, trade based systems.
