They were upset because of mass murder, theft of Church and notabilities' lands, acts of terrorism, an idiotic government which hated both replacing the old way, as well as rejecting the notion of human rights.

The Catholic Church was the richest institution in the country and the largest land owner.
Yes. And it was refused. The French Revolution in turn seized all of the property of the Catholic Church and sold it to the highest bidder.
Of course the power of the monarchs (well, it didn't decrease, they were actually killed) and the power and privileges of the nobility. The Catholic Church lost all of their property and their vast land holdings and a great many of them also lost their lives.
In the Middle Ages about 100% were Catholic because there was no other religion.
The Russian nobility was a group thatarose in the 14th century and essentially governedRussia until the October Revolution of 1917. As in other countries, nobility was a status, a social category, but not a title.
Catholic church, Christianity, king, nobility
There is only one Catholic Church, and all ordained priests were members of it before the revolution.
No. The First Estate consisted only of the Catholic Clergy, and the Second Estate was made up of the nobles. There was however a defenite cross over between the two Estates because French Bishops were all chosen by the King and most of the top ranking members of the Catholic Church were also members of the Nobility.
The First Estate during the French Revolution was the nobility.
The nobility and the king had power, but over them was the Catholic Church. The church was the ultimate power over everyone.
The Catholic Church was the richest institution in the country and the largest land owner.
The nobility and the Church. Both had extensive land holdings.
The Roman Catholic Church is over a billion members !
It's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church. . The clergy comprised the First Estate in France before the revolution and the Lords Spiritual in England.
The French revolution was extremely hostile to the Catholic Church. They guillotined priests, nuns, and sisters by the hundreds, desecrated Churches, and destroyed priceless relics.
The "Scientific Revolution" did not weaken the Catholic Church, the Scientific Revolution was brought about by the Catholic Church. Nearly everyone who contributed to it for centuries was Catholic, in many notable cases, they were even clergy or monks. People of a protestant or secular viewpoint often make the claim that the scientific revolution led to a weakening of the Church because the Church relied on things not seen, while science relied on provable facts, but this is a straw argument, and doesn't touch the reality that everyone actually doing the science was a Catholic.
The Catholic Clergy made up the First Estate. The French Nobles made up the Second Estate. The commoners were all lumped into the Third Estate.
