Hi,

Your answer :
1789: Louis XVI meets the States General at Versailles to try to find solutions to the serious economic crisis that France is going through. The deputies of the Third Estate, Mirabeau in the lead, who asked for reforms, decided to react to the refusal of the king to grant them. On June 17 and 20, with some noble liberals, they proclaimed themselves "National Assembly" and decided to endow France with a constitution. Gathered in the room of the Jeu de paume at Versailles, the deputies then take an oath to separate only once this work is done.

But following the dismissal of Necker by the king, angry and anxious Parisians gather, determined - to defend themselves - to take weapons where they are, and these weapons are in the Bastille ...

More than a revolt, it's a revolution that will upset the world ...

On August 26, the National Assembly adopts the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen which proclaims freedom and equality for all. On September 3, 1791, France holds its first written constitution.

But when Austria and Prussia enter the war, the revolutionaries make the royal family responsible, dismiss it, and imprison it in the Temple. The Assembly is then replaced by the Convention which votes the Republic. This is the end of royalty in France ... and the beginning of the Terror.

Judged and condemned, the king is guillotined on January 21, 1793, while the Convention leaves the power to a Committee of Public Safety who hunts the opponents. Robespierre, victim of his system, is guillotined on July 28, 1794. It is the end of the Terror.

On August 22, 1795, the Convention adopted a new constitution, approved by referendum, based on the separation of powers. The legislature is divided into two assemblies: the Council of Five Hundreds (for deputies) and the Council of Elders.

Confronted with serious economic difficulties, the regime falls on 18 Brumaire 1799 (9 November 1799) following the coup d'etat of a brilliant and ambitious general: Napoleon Bonaparte.
1789-1799
Good bye ;)

During the French Revolution, the National Assembly (French: Assemblée nationale), which existed from 13 June 1789 to 9 July 1789, was a revolutionary assembly formed by the representatives of the Third Estate of the Estates-General; thereafter (until replaced by the Legislative Assembly on 30 Sept 1791) it was known as the National Constituent Assembly (French: Assemblée nationale constituante), though popularly the shorter form persisted
