The economy was really poor during the French Revolution, one of the reasons that it occurred. For example, the prices of bread were rising at alarming costs, and the people began to starve. Bread and grain were a major factor for the lives of the French at the time. The French were heavily in debt due to helping out the Americans in the American Revolution, the French-Indian War, as well as the expenditures the monarchy racked up, such as Marie Antoinette's wardrobe. Overall, the economy was TERRIBLE.
