Which estate in france was exempted from paying taxes?

Answer»

ong>ANSWER:

Estates of the Realm and Taxation

The nobles and the CLERGY were largely EXCLUDED from taxation (with the exception of a modest quit-rent, an ad valorem TAX on land) while the commoners paid disproportionately high direct taxes. In PRACTICE, this meant mostly the peasants because many bourgeois obtained exemptions.
