The Third Estate
</h1>
<p>
During the 18th century, industries developed and France's cities grew in size.
An important consequence of this was the development of a group of people known as the Third Estate.
This so called middle class included factory-owners,
businessman, lawyers, doctors and other professionals.
</p>
<p>
They were well educated, and in many cases very wealthy through their businesses or profession.
Yet, the third Estate enjoyed few of the privileges of the Nobles.
It paid high taxes, and very few of its members ever roseto important positions
in the government, army or courts.

Dissatisfaction
</h1>
<p>
It is fair to say that many French people were deeply unhappy under the regime.
The peasants and workers resented the heavy taxes which keeps them poor.
The middle class, or bourgeoisie, which made up the third Estate,
was angry not alone because of the taxes, but also because,
despite their wealth and education, they were denied positions of power.
</p>
<p>
These groups vastly outnumbered King, Nobles and churchmen,
but until the reign of Louis XVI, their anger has been controlled
by strict laws and by force. Prisons like the Bastille in Paris
were constantly full with people who had criticised the government
or who failed to pay their taxes.
