Question

Did the 2nd estate during the French revolutionary war like the king?

Answer 1

Sorry, but the Second Estate was the Clergy. Under the original rules of the Estates General, each Estate had an equal number of delegates and then each Estate had one collective vote. As the Catholic Church is a bureaucratic hierarchy, the lowly priests would often do as they were told by the higher-ups who were in favor of the status quo, with the result that the First Estate (the Nobility) and the Second Estate (the Clergy) would always gang up on the Third Estate (the Bougeoise or economic class).

After the Estates General was convened, as a way of mollifying the Bourgeoise, it was allowed that the Third Estate would have a much larger number of delegates but still the same one collective vote. As the new delegates proved to be extremely radical and also very persuasive, many of the small priests began to come over to their side with the result that they changed the Second Estate's vote to change the rules from collective votes to one vote per delegate. This now gave an overwhelming electoral majority to the Third Estate, which began to now propose very radical legislature. This led the King to then order the closing of the Estates, which led to the Tennis Court Oath where the overwhelming majority of delegates pledged not to cease until France was free (and radical), which led to the beheading of the King a few years later (Hassan - CHOP!!)

Answer 2

They were the nobility.  They liked whatever kept them rich and powerful.
