The intellectuals of the city criticised the church and the King's rule, gathering groups of supporters. Many of the ordinary peasants were fed up with the lack of food and enormous taxes.
Eventually the King was forced to call the States-General but each of the three estates (clergy, nobility and commons) wanted different things. Eventually the third estate (commons) declared itself the National Assembly as they had the majority.
