Life as a peasant in France in 1789 was marked by hardship and struggle. Many peasants faced extreme poverty, working long hours in agriculture while dealing with high taxes and feudal obligations to landowners. The burden of food scarcity and rising prices, particularly in the wake of poor harvests, contributed to widespread discontent. This environment of frustration and inequality ultimately fueled the revolutionary fervor that erupted during the French Revolution.
