Which economic factor was a chief cause of the French Revolution? France did not have a middle class. The First and Second Estates were less wealthy than the Third Estate. King Louis XVI refused to share tax revenue with nobles. The burden of taxes in France fell primarily on the Third Estate. I don't really know this one at all.

Answers

"France did not have a middle class" is the best option from the list as to the economic factor that was a chief cause of the French Revolution, although this was not entirely alone. 

Answer:

The burden of taxes in France fell primarily on the Third Estate.

Explanation:

The French Revolution was the result of the political, economic and social crisis that France faced in the late eighteenth century. This crisis marked the end of the absolutist monarchy that existed in France for centuries and the old order of privileges that constituted the Old French Regime. At that time, France was ruled by Louis XVI, and society was divided into social classes, known as states:

  • First State: clergy;
  • Second State: nobility;
  • Third State: people, a generic definition that incorporates the rest of French society.

French society was very well defined: a group that had a number of privileges to the detriment of the rest of the country. It is important to note that the Third State was an extremely heterogeneous class, made up of distinct groups, such as the bourgeoisie and the peasantry.

In any case, French society was marked by extreme inequality, since nobility and clergy enjoyed privileges, such as the exemption of certain taxes and the right to levy taxes on their lands. For this reason, the weight of taxes falls in the third state. This social inequality was the root of the crisis faced by France in the eighteenth century.
