Explanation:

The French Revolution was spurred by many factors. Inequalities in the tax - structure meant the Third Estate (commoners) paid most of the taxes while the clergy and nobility had exemptions, leading to great discontent. Mercantilism's economic success was not a cause but rather an economic system in place before. The Congress of Vienna occurred after the French Revolution. The Continental System was a Napoleonic - era policy, also after the start of the Revolution.

Answer:

inequalities in the tax structure
