During the French Revolution, there was a dark and violent period known as the Reign of Terror. Anyone they suspected of being untrue to the revolution was captured and put to death. It went on for about a year. Many as 10,00 people died and it ended by Robespierre getting arrested and then killed which stopped all of it.
I don't want to die!
*cries*
People being sent to get executed
We are so proud of you Napoleon!
The first coup d'état by Napoleon took place in 1799. He pushed changes to the tax code, road and sewer networks, and higher education.
It feels good to be king!
We love you sir
It was an unfair system that was broken into 3 parts. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd estates. The clergy, nobility and commoners. The commoners were the poor and they were 97% of the population. The nobility were the 2nd class and they were only 2% of the population. And lastly, the clergy were the first class and that was only 1% of the population. The Estates General was really unfair because they would raise higher taxes for the peasants and not for the to upper classes.
We don't pay as much taxes as they do. That's not fair!
It's too much! I wont have enough money to survive for myself! Please.. I just want justice
