Hello Everyone, happy storming of the Bastille day!

July 14, 1789 The people of Paris seized the Bastille, the royal prison and symbol of royal arbitrariness. This came after days of riots fueled by the economic crisis and the dismissal of Jacques Necker, Louis XVI's finance minister. The insurgents searched for gunpowder and ammunition. In front of the Bastille, after hours of tension and negotiations with the governor, the crowd stormed the fortress. The Bastille fell, a symbolic victory for the people of Paris. The fall of the Bastille marked the beginning of the French Revolution. This day became a symbol of the popular uprising against absolutism. A year later, on July 14, 1790, the Republic organized the Fête de la Fédération (Fédération Festival).
