The way Louis wanted to solve this is Taxing the 1st and 2nd estate. He taxed them for 50% of their income. This was the 1st meeting in 175 years. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/xx_wnNZUhGPphEYp_tMR4YkSRhKAEw5VOT9nFb4ECQLFH4EJ0u0AWqkeswNTgkVv_1B2Fxn3N6IAP6AS7aKE7ekycUg621ERd2M=w1440-h789]]> 2019-02-19 17:21:35 UTC https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/332809560 carr_k035 https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/332812506 The National Assembly was formed by people in the third estate.

They represented change in France. https://imgglb.padletcdn.com/v13/image?t=c_limit,dpr_1,h_789,w_1440&url=https%3A%2F%2Fpadletartifacts.blob.core.windows.net%2Fprod%2F0c479cacc640f2a5d0955585d5a71f6b%2Ffrench-revolution-1789-1799-national-assembly-on-4-and-5-august-1789-ERT36Y.jpg]]> 2019-02-19 17:26:16 UTC https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/332812506 carr_k035 https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/332814812 The 3rd estate was locked out of the chambers. So they went to the tennis court next door to hold their meeting. They vowed to not separate, and to keep meeting until a constitution was made for their country. This was a way to get their voices heard by everyone. Especially because they were in the 3rd estate. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/cgPxZz7q05QUod6ujLrGULkE-S5r17OyJqAiFCIDXOf12-2Z01VNCPVOXXMrtDfnGfbn7xOQ-pCBUf8zaL4u1khSmSdAtJkcKKI=w1440-h789]]> 2019-02-19 17:29:37 UTC https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/332814812 carr_k035 https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/332983778 Men and women rushed the prison of bastille in demand of change. The prison was a symbol of the kings rule. When the building was taken over by the third estate, the governor was killed. His head was paraded around the streets on a sword. This was a sign of the Kings rule going downhill.https://imgglb.padletcdn.com/v13/image?t=c_limit,dpr_1,h_789,w_1440&url=https%3A%2F%2Ftimedotcom.files.wordpress.com%2F2016%2F07%2Fbastille.jpeg]]> 2019-02-20 00:11:43 UTC https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/332983778 carr_k035 https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/332984436 This document known as The Declaration of Man and of the Citizen was very important in the revolution. This document stated the freedoms that the French people would receive. These included, freedom of speech, religion, and the seperation of powers. This is exactly what the third estate wanted. They got their constitution.https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/qJW6cCeWDrkqf7xULx0Sw_rJV7VZ2M88fxPW2h4NFMRdUa6hLJwRt3EFHJXYnUjIlmHjsWYjg39SlEMq6PkgEBxPiF-pLrLvZzo=w1440-h789]]> 2019-02-20 00:15:09 UTC https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/332984436 carr_k035 https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/333703284 King Louis was executed in 1793 by the guillotine. The guillotine was proven o be painless, but they put the harsh king in there anyway. He was arrested and imprisoned. He was sentenced to death short after by a majority vote. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/CyStWyp62789EREjfA2zpOrTk9msu0TLKqJmjIs5X9DrcVZtQyEC4Kh2Adm4YDouGrgxWYIbHFheojuPTraFKXJDZDhhq7pp7w=w1440-h789]]> 2019-02-21 16:11:30 UTC https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/333703284 carr_k035 https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/334592923 King Louis and Madame "Deficit" tried to flee their home country of France. They wanted to escape to initiate a counter revolution. They only got to the small town of Varennes. They traveled 250km. This led to King Louis execution in 1793.  https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/unfNYzJzOyQvJoNVlK6oTXgRa2ixcnp1FHKXPNARbIXQU9yBaNCN3M8yZIfkPLFCZLJk36A9MhnvnZVjFYArF9EWNa3boGEN6d4=w300-h120]]> 2019-02-24 17:11:38 UTC https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/334592923 carr_k035 https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/334597723 This constitution made a legislative assembly. The legislative assembly was elected by indirect voting.  It also retained monarchy. This government was a government where the king and the people share power. Only citizens who paid taxes were allowed to vote.https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/dbuT35Ai-Bf6te0A-7mjeR8M536dcp8Q7M2eyMj2L10lCg9DAUQ6kdYhZ2McJR5_8cApdGGk402mlj-UoxkFCg4JI6TIOqiBlEQ=w300-h500]]> 2019-02-24 17:48:11 UTC https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/334597723 carr_k035 https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/334598864 The government took very harsh measures against people who challenged the revolution. People who challenged this were called royalists. Royalists supported a monarchy. If you were found to be a royalist, you were either executed or punished and tortured. During this time the committee of public safety was established.  https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/PX6wnMJ9vLPPkfehiXR9TM3hvezsuB75_aEGxts8guaGqdHjSi2zBVi09K4Y1IQeSWCgt6gVkz9_95GH8wHzXCbaWbap0eCNMk4=w300-h225]]> 2019-02-24 17:57:23 UTC https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/334598864 carr_k035 https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/334656696 The fall of this leader started when he sent his friends Danton and Desmoulins. Robespierre used his power in the committee of public safety to have the 2 put in front of a judge. The trial was very unfair and both were sent to the guillotine. People were very suspicious after this. Why would he have 2 of his friends murdered? He was seen as a tyrant. He was taken down before he ruined the government.]]> 2019-02-25 00:55:24 UTC https://padlet.com/carr_k035/frenchrev/wish/334656696
