Answer:

Hey there!! here is the answer..

Explanation:

The system of estates in French society :

Peasants made up about 90 per cent of the population. However,

only a small number of them owned the land they cultivated. About

60 per cent of the land was owned by nobles, the Church and other

richer members of the third estate. The members of the first two

estates, that is, the clergy and the nobility, enjoyed certain privileges by

birth. The most important of these was exemption from paying taxes to

the state. The nobles further enjoyed feudal privileges. These included

feudal dues, which they extracted from the peasants. Peasants were obliged to render services to the lord ñ to work in his house and fields ñ to serve in the army or to participate in building roads.

Hope this helps... ; )
