Feudalism was abolished (August 4, 1789).- Nobles, clergy, towns, provinces, companies, and cities lost their special privileges.- The Assembly published the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen (August 26, 1789) which stated that the individual and collective rights of the nobility, clergy, and commoners were equal.- The National Assembly was legitimized (October 6, 1789).- Legislation enacted in 1790 abolished the Church's authority to levy a tax on crops, cancelled special privileges for the clergy, and confiscated Church property.- The government introduced a new paper currency.- Royalist democrats and the National Party were the two new main parties of France.- Political "clubs" in French politics were on the rise.- King Louis XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette were arrested and later were beheaded.- The Constitution of 1791 was signed by the king (they forced him to) and from then on France would function as a constitutional monarchy.- Many people were beheaded on the guillotine because they were seen as counter-revolutionaries and therefore traitors (this is known as the Reign of Terror).
