“Inflation is defined as a sustained increase in the general level of prices for goods and services in a county, and is measured as an annual percentage change” (Investopedia). The Economic status before and during French revolution was dismal because of the way the government used the people’s money for their own benefit, and the way they managed taxes. One good example of this was louis XVI, he would use people’s money for his own pleasure like having over 9 thousand personal guards and “128 musicians, 75 religious officials, 48 doctors, and 198 persons to care for his body” (Fee). Louis would have no idea on how to set a proper form of government and he ended up using a lot of the people’s money for his own benefits either than the peoples.
