Your question is not very well worded so my answer may not be useful.
The causes of the French Revolution may be attributed to several different circumstances, such as:
France's debt that was aggravated by French involvement in the American Revolution which was led by Louis XVI to implement new taxations and to reduce privileges.
Louis XVI facing virulent oppositions from provincial parlements (which were the spearheads of the privileged classes' resistance to royal reforms)
The Enlightenment where philosophy desacralized the King's authority and the Church's as well, and promoted a new society based on "reason" instead of traditions.
