His government had a lot of problems with debt, leading to serious problems. He was weak and indecisive, allowing these problems to grow worse. His eventual solution was to tax the nobility, who forced him to convene the Estates General.

This led to the Storming of the Bastille after people were suspicious that he would dismiss the national assembly.
