Louis XVI had very poor qualities as a leader. He neglected his country over his obsession with defeating England in the American Revolution and he had sent enough money over to America to feed and house his people for an entire year. He also heavily taxed the poor who had no money and left the nobility and the priests untaxed and wanting more money. This eventually caused the people to say we have had enough and we do not want to take it anymore.
