Answer 2

The taxes were levied by the (A) French Emperor

• The taille represented a substantial tax of that time.
• It was a land tax on the peasantry and commoners. Most of the tax amount was paid by the poor people only.
• The tax was levied on each family and was dependent on the amount of land it owned. It was then paid to the state directly.
• The entire amount of the tax was first determined by the French king year after year, and then split among the several provinces for collection.
