On 1789, June, representatives from the Third Estate declared themselves a National Assembly. Absolute monarchy was rejected in the proposed French Constitution. Louis XVI agreed that his powers would be governed by a Constitution.
Explanation:
- On 17 June, after the failure of attempts to unite the three estates, the 3rd Estate declared itself a 'national legislature,' a non-governing legislature and people's assembly. However, they requested the other citizens to join, demonstrating that they would handle the nation's affairs with or without them.
- On 20 June the closure of the hall in which the National Assembly was meeting was scheduled, while talks were taken to the nearby tennis court, pledging that before the Constitution of France (Tennis Court Oath) had been resolved, it would not be divided. Following Louis XVI 's inability to sabotage and partition the three estates, "the estates-general as a national parliament had ceased to exist."
- The oath was both a revolutionary gesture and a message that "judicial power" came from the people and their members, rather than the king him-même. His unity compelled him, illusory as he dominated the national Assembly, to command the nobility to enter the "National Assembly" with the Third Estate.
- Oath revealed for the first time that Louis XVi officially had been rejected by the French people and that the King was obliged to make compromises by a rejection by the national Assembly.
