The National Assembly in France abolished several taxes during the French Revolution, most notably the feudal dues and privileges that burdened the peasantry. They eliminated the tithe, a tax paid to the church, and the taille, a direct tax levied on the common people. Additionally, they abolished the corvée, which required peasants to work on roads and public projects without pay. These changes aimed to create a more equitable tax system and reduce the financial burdens on the lower classes.
