Detailed Solution

90% of the French population was made up of Peasants.
Three estates made up French society during the French Revolution. The third estate, comprising 90% peasants, was responsible for collecting all taxes and belonged to the third estate. It is safe to assume that most French peasants were poor, despite differences in wealth and income levels. Only a relatively small portion of peasants were able to live independently as yeoman farmers and owned their land. However, the vast majority were either day laborers or feudal tenants who looked for work wherever they could find it. State taxes on peasants were quite high. Peasants had to give their local seigneur or lord dues if they were feudal tenants.
