Question

which major event is missing from the timeline shown below?
king louis xvi spends lavish amounts of money on luxuries, versailles and sends assistance to the us → the third estate paid the highest amount in taxes → poor harvests and cost of bread caused starvation →? → king louis xvi and marie antoinette were beheaded → declaration of the rights of man and the citizen was adopted
options:

• the american revolution began
• napoleon & robespierre combine forces and attack the bastile
• napoleon sells the louisiana territory to the us
• the french revolution began

Explanation:

The timeline shows events leading to and during the French Revolution. King Louis XVI's lavish spending, Third Estate's tax burden, and food shortages were causes. The French Revolution began as a key event between these causes and later events like the beheading of the royal couple and the Declaration of Rights. The American Revolution began earlier, Napoleon - Robespierre alliance is incorrect (they were not allies in attacking the Bastille), and selling Louisiana was later. So the missing event is the start of the French Revolution.

Answer:

The French Revolution began
