hey mate here's the answer
the circumstances leading to the outbreak of the revolutionary protest in France were:-
•SOCIAL INEQUALITY
French society in the 18th century was divided into 3 estates namely the clergy,the nobility and the third estate which comprises peasants, officials and small businessman.It was only third estate who paid the taxes.Clergy and nobility were exempted from the taxes.
•SUBSISTENCE CRISIS
The population of France also increased from 23 million in 1715 to 28 million in 1789.Food grains were now in great demand.Price of bread rose up.Wages did not keep pace with rising prices. This led to the subsistence crisis.
•ECONOMIC PROBLEMS
Long years of war had drained the financial resources of France.To meet its regular expenses, such as the maintenance of army,the court, running government offices or universities,the state was forced to increase the taxes.
•STRONG MIDDLE CLASS
The middle class emerged educated and wealthy during the 18th century.They believed that no group in society should be given privileges by birth.ldeas of equality and freedom were put forward by the philosophers. The ideas of these philosophers were discussed intensively in salons and coffee houses and spread among the people.
•IMMEDIATE CAUSE
On 5th May 1789, Louis XVI called together an assembly of Estates General to pass the proposal for new taxes.Third estate protested against this proposal but as each estate had only one vote the king rejected this appeal.They walked out of the assembly.
