What was the problem when the king called for the meeting of the Estates General?

The problem when the king called for the meeting of the Estates General in 1789 was that the Third Estate, representing the commoners, felt marginalized and underrepresented compared to the First and Second Estates, representing the clergy and nobility, respectively. The voting system in the Estates General gave each estate one vote, despite the Third Estate having a much larger population. This led to tensions and ultimately sparked the French Revolution as the Third Estate demanded equal representation and more political power.

How was the third estate treated unfairly?

The three estates had an equal vote in the Estates General, which gave the first estate (clergy) and the second estate (nobility) both equal presence with the third estate. This was problematic for two reasons. The first issue was that these votes were vastly out of proportion with the amount of people that they represented. The third estate was 97-98% of the French population, but had only 33% of the vote. The second issue was that the equal votes of the first and second estate served as an effective veto to oppose any changes or improvements which the third estate would request, effectively making the third estate unable to use the Estates General as a vehicle to benefit them in any way.

What issue deadlocked the estates general from the start?

The Estates General was deadlocked from the start primarily due to disagreements over voting procedures. The Third Estate, representing the common people, demanded that votes be counted by head rather than by estate, which would give them more influence. In contrast, the First and Second Estates (the clergy and nobility) preferred voting by estate, which would maintain their power. This fundamental disagreement over representation and voting rights led to a stalemate that contributed to the eventual outbreak of the French Revolution.
