French Revolution Pt.1

Say Marie, all these wars are taking quite a toll on our finances. I do say we must increase taxes.
I must call for the Estates General to meet, we need a solution!
Unfortunately, I do not think that the peasants can pay any more taxes Louis.
Send a man to call together the first and second Estates, and call the third together yourself.
Right away, Sire.
What is so important that my father must talk about it on a Sunday?
I must go, to preserve our country's integrity, and to represent our dear third estate.
Father, what was that meeting? Is there trouble?
There may very well be trouble Augustin. I am needed by our country.
The King has called together the Estates General meeting for the first time in a very long time.
What is the Es...Estates Ge...General?
It is the gathering of the finest representatives in France of each Estate.
The three Estates are the clergies, nobility and the peasants.
This system allows our society to divide itself up in politics.
Goodnight son, but remember that while it is complicated now, change is coming to France.
