It was an Absolute Monarchy.

Just prior to the Revolution the monarchs were beginning to work at reforms - based on some of the ideas as expressed by the philosophes of the Enlightenment.

Unfortunately such changes were too little too late and the people continued to find the monarchy too 'out of touch' with reality as they knew and experienced it.
