Answer:

In France of the Old Regime the monarch did not have the

power to impose taxes according to his will alone. Rather he had to

call a meeting of the Estates General which would then pass his

proposals for new taxes. The Estates General was a political body to

which the three estates sent their representatives. However, the

monarch alone could decide when to call a meeting of this body.
