Explanation:

The Ancien Régime institutionalised the authority of the clergy in its status as the First Estate of the realm. As the largest landowner in the country, the Catholic Church controlled properties which provided massive revenues from its tenants; the Church also had an enormous income from the collection of tithes.

The church was the largest land-owner in France. It owned about 20% of the arable land in France. That obviously made them a target of the more radical elements in the National Assembly. When the Estates General assembled in the spring of 1789, rather than discussing taxation—the King had called the Estates because of his financial difficulties—members of the Third Estate called for voting by membership, rather than by estates. Voting by estates, the clergy and the nobility could dismiss any measure of the Third Estate by two to one. Voting by members would give an advantage to the Third Estate.
