Napoleon Bonaparte actually overthrew the Old Regime; he did not create it.
France was divided into one of three social classes or estates
The Estates General of 1789 failed to solve the problems of the French Old Regime primarily due to deep-seated social and economic divisions among the three estates: the clergy, the nobility, and the common people (Third Estate). The Third Estate, representing the majority of the population, felt marginalized and excluded from meaningful decision-making, leading to tensions and demands for greater representation. Additionally, the inability to reach consensus on key issues, such as taxation and voting rights, highlighted the outdated structure of the Old Regime. Ultimately, this discord contributed to the eruption of the French Revolution rather than resolving existing grievances.
