Answer:
A. The government increased taxes.
Explanation:
The period of poor harvests, famine, and civil unrest in France was the catalyst for the revolution occurring between 1789 and 1799 under King Louis XVI. During this timeframe, in efforts to amend the situation and tackle the deepening financial issues, the French government opted to raise taxes.
