BSQ:
Why would the king want to give the 3rd Estate ONLY one vote?
Why do you think many members of the First and Second Estates joined the
National Assembly?
A Great Fear Sweeps France
 Storming the Bastille- 5:26
Peasants in Paris, starving
and unemployed, hear a
rumor that the King is
sending soldiers to kill
them. They gather knives
and pitch forks, break into
the Bastille, kill the guards,
free the prisoners, and take
the weapons and
gunpowder. Later they find
out no soldiers were ever
sent. Now a national
holiday: Bastille Day, 7/14
 Great Fear- This is the
beginning of the French
Revolution. All over
France, Peasants rise up
and attack their lords, steal
their goods and set their
houses on fire. Violence
reigns.
The King Comes to Paris
 March On Versailles: 3:00 Women
of Paris, starving and watching
their children freeze to death, take
up knives and sticks and march to
Versailles. They kill nobles there,
stick their heads on poles, force
the king to give them food and
make him return to Paris to do the
work of Government. The King
and his Family are killed before
they can return to Versailles again.
Now on your Timeline…
• Start by illustrating the events of the French
Revolution.
• Stick Figures are OK!
• Then, on the back….
• For each event, say how it helped the
French people decide to take their power
back from the king. Some events might
serve as an example, others might be a
reason to take power back, still others might
be practice at taking power. You decide!
Please explain each one.
