Answer:

On 14 July 1789, when the Bastille in Paris, France was stormed it only housed seven old prisoners, none of which were politically important. There were even plans to close down the prison because it was so costly to maintain, for such a small purpose. The regular garrison that was posted there consisted of a bunch of “invalides,” veteran soldiers who were no longer seen as fit for battle. The King didn’t even know about this event until the next day and while 90 attackers died in the battle, only one defender died before the surrender. To him it was as unimportant as an insignificant village.The main reason why the rebel Parisians stormed the Bastille was not to free any prisoners but to get ammunition and arms. At the time, over 30,000 pounds of gunpowder was stored at the Bastille. But to them, it was also a symbol of the monarchy’s tyranny.
