Clergy were representatives of the Catholic church, between then there were the pope, bishops, priests, monks and nuns.

In France the Clergy occupied important positions handling around 15% of lands and being responsible for many public functions. Many of clergy hold positions of political influence and they gave support for the French Revolution.

Part of the clergy defended the interest of the nobles class and other part the poors.

Because of suspicious actions from the clergy and theirs intentions for the support of the Revolution on 12 July 1790 the Assembly approved the law: Civil Constitution of the Clergy, a law which determined the clergy submission to the French State.
