Which statement about the causes of the French Revolution is false?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

False - The king had limited power in the government​

Explanation:

The American and French Revolutions were directly inspired by Enlightenment ideals and respectively marked the peak of its influence and the beginning of its decline.

The French Revolution was shaped more by Rousseau's ideas than by the works of any other figure. ... These works thrust Rousseau into the public arena – but his strong criticisms of royalty, aristocracy and religion also saw him hounded out of Geneva. He returned to France, where he lived out the remainder of his years.

The immediate cause of the Revolution was that the French monarchy faced imminent bankruptcy. (This was partly because of the enormous sums it had spent assisting the American Revolution between 1778 and 1781 in order to discomfort the traditional enemy, Britain.)
