The First Estate in France's pre-revolutionary social structure comprised the clergy, including priests, bishops, and other religious leaders. This group held significant power and influence, both spiritually and politically, and was exempt from many taxes. The First Estate was tasked with the spiritual well-being of the population and managed church affairs. Their privileges and wealth often made them a target of criticism during the lead-up to the French Revolution.
