A 175-year celebration is commonly referred to as a "quasquicentennial" or a "septaquintaquinquecentennial." The term "quasquicentennial" is derived from the Latin words "quasqui" meaning "one and a half" and "centennial" meaning "a hundred years." Alternatively, "septaquintaquinquecentennial" combines the Latin words "sept" for "seven," "quinta" for "five," and "quinquecentennial" for "500 years," emphasizing the milestone of 175 years.

The Third Estate was at a disadvantage when the vote went by estate, since the First and Second Estates tended to vote together.
