Which voting arrangement in the Estates General of 1789 gave the clergy and nobility an advantage over the Third Estate?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: प्रत्येक एस्टेट को एक मत
Voting was by estate, so the clergy and nobility could combine their two votes against the single vote of the Third Estate. Voting by head was the Third Estate’s demand because it reflected its larger number of deputies. Exam tip: remember this as two privileged estates versus one Third Estate vote.
