The following circumstances lead to the outbreak of revolutionary protest in France:

(i)Social Inequality: France was suffering from social inequality. The clergy and the nobility led a luxurious life and enjoyed many privileges by birth. While the peasants and the labourers lived very hard life.They had to pay heavy taxes.

(ii)Extravagant King:Louis XVI spent lots of money on luxurious living and wasteful festivities. The high posts were generally auctioned which caused inefficiency in the administration. The people were irritated from such system.

(iii)Worse economic Conditions:Long years of war had drained the financial resources of France.Added to this way the cost of maintaining extravagant court. To meet these expenses,the state was forced to increase taxes that also irked the people of France.

(iv)Immediate cause:On 5 may, 1789, Louis XVI called together an assembly os Estates General to pass proposals for new taxes.This proved to be immediate cause of the French revolution.
