Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
The worsening economic situation of the French Empire made the monarch propose new taxes. But the monarch's will alone was not enough to impose new taxes. The proposal had to be passed by the Estates General. The members from each estate were sent to the Estates General, a political body of the Old Regime. Each estate had one vote. Thus, it was convocated by the monarch Louis XVI in 1799. In contrast, the National Assembly was the body formed by the Third Estate's representatives when the monarch refused to implement their demand of one person, one vote in the Estates General.
The correct statement would be the Estates General was a political body of the Old Regime to which the representatives from each estate were sent.
