The term Old Regime refers to French society before the French Revolution. Before the revolution, France followed the feudal system. Due to this, the society was divided into three estates or groups. The first estate consisted of the clergy while the second estate consisted of the nobles. Together these two estates made up the "privileged class". They made up only ten percent of the total French population. The remaining ninety percent was made up by the third estate. The third estate consisted of all the other members of society including doctors, lawyers, merchants, tradesmen, artisans, peasants, daily wage workers, maids, servants, etc.
