Answer

Brief Explanations:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

  • Option A: The Estates - General was not made part of the National Assembly. The National Assembly was formed by the Third Estate, and it was a separate body from the Estates - General.
  • Option B: The formation of the National Assembly was a revolutionary move, and it did not inspire the Estates - General to push for reforms. In fact, the Estates - General's inaction and the inequality in its representation led to the formation of the National Assembly.
  • Option C: The National Assembly was formed in opposition to the king's and the Estates - General's policies. It did not compel the Estates - General to support the king.
  • Option D: After the formation of the National Assembly (by the Third Estate, as they declared themselves the true representatives of the nation), the Estates - General, which was a body with three estates (clergy, nobility, and commoners) with unequal representation, ceased to exist as a relevant political body. The National Assembly took over the political power, and the old system of Estates - General was abandoned.

Answer:

D. It caused the Estates - General to cease to exist.
