The Estates-General had not been convened for 150 years prior to its meeting in 1789 primarily due to the absolute monarchy in France, which favored centralized power and avoided sharing authority with representative bodies. Kings Louis XIV and Louis XV ruled without calling the Estates-General, relying on their royal prerogatives to govern. Additionally, the growing financial crisis and social unrest made it increasingly necessary to address grievances, ultimately leading to the assembly's revival in the wake of widespread discontent among the populace.
