What problems existed in pre revolutionary France?

just how much the royalty spent and how the peasants couldn't even buy their bread because how the prices were going up with the seven year war. also the taxes on them.

The past rulers had spent too much money and when Marie Antoinette an her husband Louis ruled, they led a lavish and rich lifestyle. The people got angry and beheaded both of them. Things such as wars and things that the rulers wanted that were very expensive drained the money from France.
