Answer: The three things that left France´s government in debt before the revolution were:
1- France´s involvement in the Seven Year´s war (1756-1763)
2- France´s participation in the American Revolution of 1775-1783 and also the costs of having a big army and navy to mantain.
3. The costs related to the King Louis XVI´s extravagant palace at Versailles and the superficial spending of the queen, Marie-Antoinette
Explanation: The involvement in wars and the extravagant spendings of the kings were the main factors that led France to the Revolution. Since if it wasn´t for these financial irresponsabilities, France would still have been prosperous at the time.
World War I had a devastating effect on German-Americans and their cultural heritage. Up until that point, German-Americans, as a group, had been spared much of the discrimination, abuse, rejection, and collective mistrust experienced by so many different racial and ethnic groups in the history of the United States. Indeed, over the years, they had been viewed as a well-integrated and esteemed part of American society. All of this changed with the outbreak of war. At once, German ancestry became a liability. As a result, German-Americans attempted to shed the vestiges of their heritage and become fully “American.” Among other outcomes, this process hastened their assimilation into American society and put an end to many German-language and cultural institutions in the United States.
Although German immigrants had begun settling in America during the colonial period, the vast majority of them (more than five million) arrived in the nineteenth century. In fact, as late as 1910, about nine percent of the American population had been born in Germany or was of German parentage – the highest percentage of any ethnic group.[1] Moreover, as most German-Americans lived on the East Coast or in the Midwest, there were numerous regions in which they made up as much as 35 percent of the populace. Most of the earlier German immigrants had been farmers or craftsmen and had usually settled near fellow countrymen in towns or on the countryside; most of those who arrived in the 1880s and thereafter moved to the ever growing cities in search of work. Soon enough there was hardly any large U.S. city without an ethnic German neighborhood. German-Americans wielded strong economic and cultural influence in cities such as New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Louis, and Cincinnati, with the latter three forming the so-called German triangle.
The answer is:
Parties help facilitate electoral choice so there's a limit to which we may blame political parties when our government doesn't function effectively.
Explanation
Because of the fact that parties help mobilize voters also called 'getting out the vote', you can't really blame political parties when the government doesn't function effectively because if you don't get people to vote for them the parties would be free to chose candidates. They do this to encourage low voter turnout through direct mail, email or advertisement or also help through voter registration drives as well as coordinate volunteers to help get people to vote. The blame may be blamed on individual citizens like ourselves because a person can in fact run as an independent and if they get enough signatures on a petition they can become a candidate.
You would most likely place blame on the citizens who do not vote than on the political parties themselves when you take this into consideration.
