There was a different scene in Paris on the Morning of July 14, 1789. The king directed its force to move into the city. Rumors flowed that he would shortly command them to fire upon the residents. Therefore, around 7000 people organised an army and destroyed the governmental building in search of arms. Another group of people attacked the fort jail of Bastille in the hope to find saved ammunition. Thereon a fight took place in which the chief of Bastille was murdered and seven hostages were re-leased. The Bastille was rebelled by all as it persisted for the absolute authority of the emperor. It was destroyed and its remnants were traded as relics.
The constitutional monarchy was set up in France as a result of the French Revolution. This new code came into the process in 1791. The King of France was dethroned and executed in 1792. Thereon, France became a republic. The First Republic was an unsteady government that met internal rebellions and foreign invasion. The reign of terror that began in France saw the mass killing of people and nationwide violence. Ultimately Napoleon Bonaparte (the First Consul and the later emperor of France), put an end to this situation and the Republic. Although France had a constitution Napoleon ruled as a despot.
