Yes they did stand at the top of the hierarchy. The Latin american hierarchy went: Peninsulares, Creoles, Mestizos, Mulattos, Native Americans and Africans.
In the Spanish Colonies, the social classes were structured as follows: peninsulares (those born in Spain), creoles (those of Spanish descent born in the colonies), mestizos (mixed-race individuals), Native Americans, and enslaved Africans.
There are actually four Social Structures of New Spain. They are:The Peninsulares wealthy and born in SpainThe Creoles Born in America but have spanish parents ; wealthy and well educatedThe Mestizos Born as Indian and spanish(mixed) worked in well services;owned bye creoles and peninsularesThe Indians are treated like they're conquered , not able to do many things
The four social classes in the Spanish colonies were peninsulares, creoles, mestizos, and Indians.
Creoles resented peninsulares because peninsulares were born in Spain and held higher social and political positions in the colonies, creating a sense of superiority and favoritism towards those of Spanish descent. This led to tensions and animosity between the two groups.
