Hi,
Your answer :
The Revolution of 1789 was a civil war between the haves. Forget the official speeches invented by Michelet that are only a fable intended to give legitimacy to a much less glorious reality.
Rivalry between kings and nobility
The Kings of France were wary of the powerful families of the nobility, their former rivals. Over the centuries, therefore, they have granted more and more prerogatives to the commoners, whom they hoped for a loyalty to any test.
As the bourgeoisie grew in power, the aristocracy lost its powers. At the Court of Versailles, appearances were deceptive. The King kept with him the powerful and rich nobles in order to neutralize them politically. But the real power was elsewhere ...
Progressive decline of the nobility
In the Middle Ages, the nobles participated fully in the political, judicial, military and administrative life of their fiefs. They did justice, they ran the administration, applied the laws, raised taxes, etc.
In the 18th century, all these functions depended directly on the King and his central administration, headed by the King's Council, the general controllers and the 34 commoners, all commoners. They held the reality of power: they decided the amount of taxes, distribution, recruitment in the army, building roads, monitoring meetings, defining standards, distribution of charity. Nothing escaped them: the administration of the cities and all the parishes.
Good bye :)
