Answer: C.) He lived a lavish lifestyle and mishandled national finances.

Explanation: The French resented the royal family for their lavish lifestyles, and though King Louis XVI was not a tyrant in the way one would think, he did mishandle many of France's finances and send the nation into crippling debt after being persuaded into aiding American troops in the Revolutionary War. He did not have a strong personality for politics and was often known as unintelligent and gullible more than anything else.
