As for the role of the Bourbon kings in the French Revolution, they ruled France for longest of its time. It had its place in France with great political significance. Old Regime marked itself 1789 which had legal inequality, feudal economy, and absolutism.  

  • Louis XIV, Louis XV, XVI the three significant rulers - The Bourbon Kings were significantly important for the outbreak of French Revolution.
  • Louis XIV, with his indifference created ruckus amongst public and people as he drained the royal treasure and the wealth on lavish and irrelevant expenditure. They had shifted the burden of enormous and bulky taxes on the third estates.
  • Louis XV, further destroyed and shirked the economy of France. He even ended the feud with Habsburgs of Austria with being a signatory to the treaty and this recklessly sparked a seven years long war as a reaction, creating unrest and instability in society, economy, and the public in general.
  • Louis XVI- As for the previous accounts as the economy had already dragged itself to drain and suffered a massive setback, Louis XVI - who came to the throne then could not play any magic to it for the effects to disappear and hence taking it ahead and to keep the economy going and to keep treasury to work along with planned recovery he had to rather further increase the taxes.
