Explanation:
Nobles and clergy enjoyed some privileges by birth in the “French society” during the time of late 18th century. They have all the privileges and free to pay taxes. On the other side people from the third estate had a big burden of taxes and they were forced to “pay those taxes”.
This led to the French revolution. The French Revolution was taken place in the 18th century, which had a major impact throughout the world. The spirit of “independence, equality and fraternity” in the French Revolution also influenced other nations of the world. As a result of this revolution, the king was removed from the throne and a republic state was established.
