paki · Answer

The French Revolution began in 1789. The main cause of the French Revolution was the fact that King Louis XVI and his ministers became very unpopular during the time. The fact that King Louis XVI began taxing the peasants so that he could support a wealthy monarchy didn't help that popularity. The people also began hearing about many other ideas. The effect of the French Revolution included the ability for Napoleon Bonaparte to seize power. have a look here please too... http://libpind.blogspot.com/2010/01/french-revolution-1789-1799-causes.html
