Answer 2

•On 5 may, 1789 the meeting of estate general was called by King Louis XVI. The purpose of calling the meeting is to pass the proposal of new taxes.

•The first and second estates have 300 members of each of them and were sitting in rows and there were 600 members of the third estate who had to stand at the back.

•As always the voting scheme in France at that time was that one estate has one vote. But this time third estate want 1 person and 1 vote. This was refused by the king.

•So, the people of the third estate got angry and stepped out and took an oath (known as Tennis Court Oath) that they won't disperse until they form the new constitution of France.
