With the end of the 18th century, France was on its brink of bankruptcy because of its costly participation in the American Revolution and the excessive spending of King Louis XVI and his predecessor. In addition to to the "royal coffers" being depleted, twenty years of poor harvest, cattle disease,drought, and rising prices for bread had created unease among farmers and the urban poor. Many voiced contempt for a government that levied high taxes – which did not offer any relief

• France became a significant problem in the late 18th century. France was one of the biggest tax countries in Europe mostly because of its militarism, rising bureaucracy and high expenditure.
• It was unjust as the third property had to pay the brunt of the country's direct taxes. Poor peasants of France who could pay the highest taxes, believed that,  the affluent First and Second Lands paid little , they "shouldered" the most "tax burden" and were faced with a burden of obligation.
