Question

Howfar did the discontent among the peasants contribute to the outbreak of French revolution

Answer 1

The Causes of the Discontent that Resulted in the French Revolution were as follows:

(a) The government of France was an absolute, divine right monarchy which could have worked efficiently under an able King. But Louis XVI proved unworthy by neglecting the administration, imposing unequal taxation and reducing France to bankruptcy.

(b) French people were divided into three social classes or Estates – (i) the First Estate (Clergy), (ii) the Second Estate (nobility), (iii) the Third Estate (middle classes and peasant). The first two Estates had many privileges and few responsibilities. The Third Estate paid most of the taxes and received few benefits.
