Detailed Solution

The luxurious palace of King Louis XVI was located in Versailles.
The King of France from 1774 to 1792 was King Louis XVI. He lived in a luxurious palace in Versailles, France, which was extremely expensive to maintain, and took a large chunk of the taxpayer money. Louis came into power with an empty treasury. France's financial resources had been depleted through many years of conflict. France assisted the thirteen American colonies in achieving their independence from their familiar foe, Britain, during the reign of Louis XVI. Lenders who had previously extended credit to the government now charge 10% interest on loans. Consequently, the French government was forced to allocate a significant portion of its budget to interest payments on the high debts.
