The French society at the time of the French Revolution was divided as follows
The clergy, the nobility and the peasantry or the third class basically the working class. The clergy were the church people, the priests. The nobility were the people who enjoyed high status as they were very rich. The third class had to work for the nobility. Out of the third class, the peasantry formed 80 percent of the total population of France but still no heed was paid to their condition and they had to do work like road construction, and work at the farms and houses of the nobility.
The third class had to pay high rents where as the clergy and nobility had to pay absolutely no rents.
