- The Social society of French was inequally divided.
- The first and second classes were comprised of the Clergy and Nobility which were the priviliged classes exempted from all kind of state taxes.
- The third estate or the third class was comprised of the majority of the population which were the unpriviliged classes and had to pay all the state taxes.
- The population of France rose greatly during 1780's leading to food crisis. The price of bread rose highly during that time.
- The treasury of France got empty due to continuous war and the luxurious living ways of the King.
- After the assembly on 5 May, 1789, the members of the third estate became more agitated about their rights in the administration.
- On July 14, 1789 the agitated crowd stormed and destroyed the bastille, the fortress prison, leading to outbreak of the French Revolution.
