How do political contributed to the french revolution?

Answer 1

The major political issue was the fact that the King and his Government asked the Parliament (basically, the French middle class) for extra tax money, but refused it any say or control in how that money would be spent. Although most people know the French revolution for what the masses did, like storming the Bastille and the Royal palace and supporting Robbespierre and his Terror Government, the French Revolution ended with the middle class's victory: the rabble were put back in their place, the radicals were themselves led to the Guillotine and Middle Class members took over the reigns of Government. Even during Napoleon's Empire it was they who held all the important executive jobs.
