  • Once Upon a time back in the really old days in France they had really poor harvests in 1788-1789. So it lasted for a year which led to high bread prices, and unemployment was hurting France. There was this guy named Louis XVI and he was in deep dept so he had no money he was broke. The unequal Estates system divided people by three classes. The church, the nobility and the 3rd estate which included the bourgeoisie. 
  • Where are all the crops? 
  • Then Gov't indebtedness led Louis XVI to call the meeting off the Estates general, for 1st time since 1614. Which by now the Gov't was in debt crisis due to war and excess spending. Something that was not fair was voting in Estates was by order, which meant Third Estate was always outvoted. And King Louis XVI tried to persuade nobles to pay more taxes, but the nobles refused. #rd Estate then walked out of meeting and met in near by tennis court, forming a new constitution in 1791. 
  • I have no money I'm broke, What am I going to do? 
  • Next the National Assembly drafted a Declaration of rights (1789) that guaranteed liberty and equality. The constitution of 1791 established a limited monarchy with an assembly that made laws and approved or rejected war appropriations. Then the 1st Estate or clergy lost its privileges and power, forfeiting lands, money and authority. In 1792 Louis XVI tried to escape which then was forever held under close surveillance. Also monarchies in Austria and Prussia attacked revolutionary France.
