The American Revolution had happened not too long ago and the French soldiers were returning from the war. It can be said that the Glorious Revolution in England also played a factor.
The Tennis Court Oath was a very important event during the early days of the French Revolution - members of the Third Estate who were locked out of a meeting of the Estates-General held a conference in a tennis court.
The Three Estates.
i think The third estate is the common people, the largest group of people in France, difficult to get rid of them. On June 17, 1789, the Third Estate began the French Revolution. The formation of the National Constituent Assembly marked the end of the Estates-General, but not of the three estates.
The 1st and 2nd estates
The first and second estates detested the French revolution as it threatened to remove them from power and wealth.
No. The revolution created a classless society (In theory at least).
Cause of French RevolutionThe French Revolution was caused when King Louis XVI was taxing the Third Estates class but, not the frist or second estates class leaving them to get richer and richer.
It was the Etats Generaux, or Estates-General, which were a popular assembly composed of three estates, the nobility, the clergy and the 'third estate', which declared itself 'Assemblee Nationale' in June 1789. Really, the French revolution began with the Estates-General and the Serment du Jeu de Paume (or Tennis Court Oath) on June 20 1789 during which the representatives of the third estate took the pledge to write a constitution.
The Estates General was called into session.
Some major causes of the French Revolution were incapable rulers, unbalanced Estates General, economic collapse, Enlightenment ideas, and wasteful royalty.
they has lots of long term problems and in the end the government came up with a new taxation law which was to tax all the three estates
