Pays d'états

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In red, the pays d'états in 1789

Under the Ancien Régime, a pays d'états (French pronunciation: [pei deta]) was a type of généralité, or fiscal and financial region where, in contrast to the pays d'election, an estates provincial or representative assembly of the three orders had retained its traditional role of negotiating the raising of taxes with the royal commissaires or intendants, dividing the tax burden by diocese and parish, and controlling tax collection. The estates also held onto part of the funds thus raised to repair and develop the roads in its province.
