Why did representatives of the third estate insist that all three groups of Estates General meet and vote together?
Representatives of the Third Estate insisted that all three groups of the Estates General meet and vote together to ensure fair representation and to challenge the traditional voting system, which favored the First and Second Estates. By voting as a single body, the Third Estate aimed to amplify their influence, as they comprised the majority of the population yet had historically been outvoted.
