War debt Bad Harvest and a lousy winter Rising Bread prices A perfect storm Demands by urban poor-Bread riots! Common in the 18C A few peasants made money off the increased price but most didn’t have enough land to take advantage of the price of grain. Enlightenment ideals- Rousseau? Smith? Montequieu A spoiled Aristocracy?- often barred from trades or professions- relied almost exclusively on income from their estates- expenses were also rising!- late 18C expenses forced them to try to revive obsolete old rights
Reign started in 1774 Louis XVI Known as a weak and indecisive King Supported the Colonists in the American Revolution Spent money lavishly France owed huge debts---Louis had to figure a way out of the debt, he wanted to tax the nobles----they had money and weren’t already severely taxed…but that didn’t work- Nobles demanded a meeting of the Estates General
