Question:
What caused the Legislative Assembly to declare war on Austria?
Answer:
They feared that Austria would try to restore Louis to absolute power.(Louis' wife, Marie-Antoinette, was from Austria. Her brother, Joseph II, was the emperor of Austria. It seemed likely that he might come to his sister's aid. As well, he might want to come to the aid of any fellow king deposed by a democratic revolution.)
