oh ballz yes. :)
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 Nobles.
the french society in the old regime was divided into three they were the ; *clergy as first estate *nobles as second estate *commoners as third estate
They did not. They disliked the Enlightenment ideas and wanted to go back to he Old Regime.
It was divided into three Estates each theoretically equal to each other. The First Estate was the Catholic clergy, the Second Estate and all others were in the Third Estate.
The Third Estate was the commons or the ordinary people, the First Estate being the clergy and the Second Estate the nobility .
King Louis was bound to the Ancient Regime which had three Estates within the Estates General. The First Estate was the Catholic Clergy, the Second Estate was the Nobles and the Third Estate was everyone else.
The nobles, Nobility is the proper term. They have the best jobs and taxes went to them. Hope this helped.(:

Under the old regime in France, the burden of taxation primarily fell on the Third Estate, which comprised the common people, including peasants, urban workers, and the bourgeoisie. In contrast, the First Estate (clergy) and the Second Estate (nobility) enjoyed various exemptions and privileges that shielded them from significant tax liabilities. This inequitable distribution of taxation contributed to widespread discontent and was a key factor leading to the French Revolution. The heavy tax burden on the Third Estate exacerbated social inequalities and fueled demands for reform.
