In France under the ancien régime, a states (or estates) provincial (états provinciaux [eta pʁɔvɛ̃sjo]) or estates particular (états particuliers [eta paʁtikylje])[1] (to distinguish them from the Estates General; but see § États particuliers below) was an assembly of the three estates of a province, "regularly constituted, periodically convoked and possessing certain political and administrative functions, of which the main one was to vote on the impôt".[2] Only the pays d'état had rights to such estates.
