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.
