The French Revolution

1) A.People were so critical against Nobility because they were rich and didn't need to pay taxes as much as the other people did. They basically had complete power in peasants and did not have to take part in any of the federal military services. The nobes were pretty much luxurious. After all they were the second estate.
B. They were okayy richh people. They lived the life of half luxurious. Actuall maybe even more. They controlled everythingg militaryy and the kingdom.
C.The 3rd estate is known as the Clergy. Clergy relies on churches. these people are like the nobes, except not paing that many taxes.

2) Male peasasants didnt pay. They were all so poor. They couldnt feed their families or themselves.As much as for females they were useless.

3)In this picture its representing a peasent carrying a federal lord. Also you see the clergy on the side. This means he's forced to pay taxes, also follow the rules from the clergy or of any higher . The caption explains how badley the peasant wants to be free of all this.
