Explanation:
In the summer of 1789, Parisians had a hard time obtaining food. People were talking about a revolution due to the financial crisis gripping the country.
At Versailles, representatives of France's classes were meeting since May to find solutions to the economic problems that were troubling France.
Many poor citizens in Paris were angry with the government over the Bastille, a prison fortress in Paris. Many people saw the Bastille as an indicator of the absolute power of the King.
On July 14, 1789, a Paris mob stormed the Bastille in search of weapons and ammunition they believed was stored there. The group also hoped to free prisoners at the Bastille, which had been traditionally a fortress used to detain political prisoners.
At the time of the attack, the Bastille only held seven prisoners, most of whom were not present at the time of the attack.
