At the Estates General in 1789, the Third Estate requested more equitable representation and voting procedures. They sought to establish a system where votes would be counted by head rather than by estate, as the First and Second Estates (clergy and nobility) had a numerical advantage. This demand was rooted in their desire for political reform and greater influence in the decision-making process of the French government, ultimately leading to the formation of the National Assembly.
