Answer:

King Louis XVI started the French Revolution.

Explanation:

The 3 estates were unfair, especially to the 3rd estate. They had no say in the Estates General, so the people of the 3rd Estate, made up of peasants, bourgeoisie and proletariat. France was in deep debt at the time and the people were starving while the king and queen ignored it all. The age of Enlightenment also led up to the French Revolution. It influenced new thinking and ideas.
