Following are the Causes of French Revolution -
=> The administrative system was defective and disorganised in France.
=> There was no Uniform Legal system in the Country.
=> The expenditure of the Royal Court had Crossed all its limits as the entire state revenue was spent lavishly by the King, queen and courtiers.
=> The French Society was organised on the system of estates.
=> There were three estates on which the first estate and second estates were exempted from the taxes while the third estate had the entire burden of taxes.
=> The financial Policy of the French Government was extremely fauly, Under Louis XVI France had also helped thirteen American Colonies to gain independence against Britain, which became one of the cause of Revolution.
