Detailed Solution

The subsistence crisis caused by France's increase in population led to a rapid increase in the demand for food grains.
Due to the drastic increase in population, there was a shortage of food grains, which led to a rise in the prices of these food grains and a crisis in France. People started protesting and rioting against the government. The people were given high prices of bread, making them angry, and they started protests. There were poor harvests that led to a heavy rise in the prices of food. Due to the shortage of harvests, the prices of those food crops increased drastically. The economic conditions were also declining and depressing due to this harvest shortage and rise in prices. The rate of Unemployment also increased at a fast pace. All these series led to worsening the situation of the economy. High prices prevailed, a shortage of food crops, and protests by people affected the economy. This led to certain reforms and revolutions in Europe between 1830 to 1848.
