thinking that it'd all turn out well if he just remained reasonable

tfw the Bourbon Restoration was unambiguously the best time to be French since before the revolution and until the late 1900s

I like bourbon

France prerevolution sucked ass tho

>tfw no Minecraft gf

immediatly before, yes

because lots of factors piled up at once

but over all Renaissance France was the best place in Europe

from the common man's perspective

>tfw no minecraft big tiddy goth gf

>tfw no revolutionary gf who says "im sorry anon but you supported the king, i do love you" before letting the guillotine slice your head off

Before the Revolution France fought 2 expensive wars that didn't bring them any money

God I wish that were me

and had a cuple of bad harvests

which was made worse by the turmoil on the international grain market

caused by the war in Mutica

and the deletion of Polan

I want a big tiddy French maid goth to slice my head off in an act of righteous revolution

both grain exporters

the monarchy tried to solve this by increasing taxes

specifically by rescinding tax exemptions that the Aristocracy enjoyed

but the Aristocracy didn't wanna hear about it

so, in order not to go bankrupt, they had to tax the commoners more

which lead to a revolt against the King

even thou the King was really on their side

but it was too late

the Revolution happnned

and then there was a famine...

because of course there was..
