III.) The King and Finances King Louis XV -Inherits debt from Louis XIV - Expensive Habits King Louis XVI -Debts grow -Taxes 1 st /2 nd Estate -France nearly bankrupt/ Banks do not loan -Needs approval of Estates General for new taxes Marie-Antoinette -Austrian nobility - Dislike by French -French people resent her involvement in French politics
