The primary thing which happened as a result of the Third Estate was the French Revolution. The pamphlet made the common people aware of how unnecessary their rule class was and triggered a revolt.
During the Old Regime in France, the bourgeoisie was part of the Third Estate. This estate comprised the common people, including merchants, professionals, and laborers, who were not part of the clergy (First Estate) or the nobility (Second Estate). The bourgeoisie played a significant role in the economic development and ultimately became a key force in the French Revolution, advocating for political rights and social change.
The First Estate, composed of the clergy, constituted about 1% of the population, while the Second Estate, made up of the nobility, accounted for roughly 2%. Together, these two estates represented approximately 3% of the total population in France prior to the French Revolution. The remaining 97% of the population belonged to the Third Estate, which included commoners, peasants, and the bourgeoisie.
