They did this in an attempt to rectify the growing concern over the national debt of France. Louis XVI would proclaim that higher taxes would suffice to decrease the deficit, which greatly angered the commoners. ]]> 2022-01-18 14:29:28 UTC https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998049964 ztuschhoff23 https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998055500 Once the Estates General failed, the commoners would proclaim in a tennis court that they shall not fail to reconvene until they were able to create a new constitution for France.

This event obviously didn't last just one day, and instead was several months of brutal interrogation, and murder. Robbespierre, the committee leader of the Committee of Public Safety, was responsible for creating a dictatorship, and killing off many political enemies. ]]> 2022-01-18 14:40:08 UTC https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998081920 ztuschhoff23 https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998088307 2022-01-18 14:42:19 UTC https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998088307 ztuschhoff23 https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998114655 2022-01-18 14:51:13 UTC https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998114655 ztuschhoff23 https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998116050 2022-01-18 14:51:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998116050 ztuschhoff23 https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998118022 2022-01-18 14:52:24 UTC https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998118022 ztuschhoff23 https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998141712 2022-01-18 14:59:59 UTC https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998141712 ztuschhoff23 https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998163468 2022-01-18 15:06:38 UTC https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998163468 ztuschhoff23 https://padlet.com/ztuschhoff23/hmog6av0h6d12u5e/wish/1998165558 The Battle of Trafalgar would forever land lock Napoleon.

They tried to rationalize issues of the French Revolution, and solve them, as well as balance the main powers in a way that would make each about as powerful as each other.
