Brief Explanations:

During the time of the National Assembly in France, the country was already in a state of financial crisis with high - level debt and widespread poverty which had been long - standing issues. Interference by the Bishop was not the main long - standing problem. Louis XVI's demands were not the most persistent issue for the National Assembly. Lack of liberty and equality was more of a goal for the revolutionaries rather than an old, pre - existing problem for the National Assembly.

Answer:

rising debt and poverty.
