Answer:
The wretched extravagance of the French led to mounting debts and eventually the French Revolution.
Explanation:
During the 16th-17th Century, France was the most powerful European nation with a strong army, rich trading relations and huge political influence on the continent.
However, as the national became more wealthy the average person still lived in poverty. Peasants in the country-side could barely afford food while the aristocracy in Paris enjoy the life of luxury.
Eventually, the country began to run out of money and had to take on debt. Taxes were raised to compensate and increase the income of the state.
However, this resulted in a revolt and culminated in the overthrow of the French King.
Luther was devoted to the Catholic Church during his early years, growing up with a Catholic education. His feelings of guilt over his own sins drove him to enter a monastery, following a path the church provided for devoting oneself to God.
During his years as a monk, he was trained in theology to become a faculty member at the University of Wittenberg. The more he studied the Bible itself, the more he saw differences between biblical teaching and the policies and practices of the Catholic Church. He began to protest against some of what he saw wrong in the church -- not wanting to break away from the church, but to correct problems.
The higher officials of the Roman Catholic Church reacted violently against Luther, excommunicating him and wanting to silence him and even put him to death. This solidified Luther's conviction that the Catholic Church was wrong, and he became more and more antagonistic against the officialdom of the Roman Church. He went as far as to declare the office of the pope as the Antichrist.
