Answer:

The government raised taxes, is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Louis XVI became the ruler of France in the year 1774. This was the time when France was going through a severe financial crisis. Louis XVI made some efforts to overcome the debts, however, bad harvests, famine and rioting caused the situations that led the emperor to increase the taxes. However, all the new taxes or the burden of existing taxes increased on the people belonging to the third estate, which in long term resulted in the Revolution in France.
