The Third Estate than became the voice of the France and challenged the established relationships that monarchy, aristocracy, and clergy had, while the significant masses were underrepresented. Secondary, the french patriots believed that their social and political system was a reason for failures on international scene and demanded changes.

Mobility in classes were not sufficient for the rising middle class, and masses of poor people were starving. Famine was real, and people eventually had nothing to lose when they starved. People who were in the leadership of the revolution, were often middle class origin, like lawyers, clerks, doctors, professionals, army commanders, and low end aristocracy.
