Recommendations from Finance Ministers 1760’s EVENT: In 1768 Louis XV appointed a hard line financial advisor Rene’ de Maupeou and ordered him to create a financial and political plan to stabilize France. Maupeou tried to lessen the power of the Parlemants (noble courts) and tried to tax the nobility. Louis XV was not a strong king, but was able to push back against the nobles fight against the taxation. Louis XV died in 1774 and near death stated “After me, the flood…” as if he knew the financial problems in France would lead to revolution. When Louis XVI became King he “just wanted to be loved” and dismissed Maupeou because the nobles were protesting the taxation policies. The policy was eliminated. Future finance ministers recommended to Louis to tax the nobility and he refused and removed each minister. “Where did my tax revenue go?” SIGNIFICANCE: Failure to establish a tax policy to create more revenue for France is a long run cause of the French Revolution. The weakness of Louis XVI and his failure to stand up to the nobility left France in disarray and set the stage for political upheaval.
