Answer 1

When the National Assembly was busy at Versailles drafting a constitution,the rest of France seethed with turmoil. A severe winter had meant a bad harvest; the price of bread had rose ,and often bakers exploited the situation and hoarded supplies. After spending hours in long queues at the bakery, crowds of angry women stormed into the troops. At the same time ,the king ordered troops to move into Paris. Rumours spread among the people that the king would soon order the army to open fires upon its citizens. Hence, with fear and fright on the morning of 14th July 1789,the agitated crowd stormed and destroyed the Bastille.
