Detailed Solution

The population in France in 1789 was 28 million.
It was a sharp increase from the 23 million it was in 1715. As a result, demand for food grains rose quickly. Grain production could not match up with demand. Therefore, bread, a staple of the majority's diet, saw a sharp price increase. Most people found work as labourers in workshops where owners set their wages. However, earnings did not increase at the same rate that prices did. So, the wealth gap between the rich and the poor grew more. Every time a drought or rain diminished the harvest, things became worse. This situation caused a subsistence crisis, a common occurrence during the Old Regime in France.
