French Revolution - Women's March on Versailles
Start by locating Versaille on a map. How far outside Paris is it?
Look up some images of the King's palace at Versailles. Describe the grounds, and consider the wealth of the royal family. After watching the video on the Women's March to Versailles, consider the following questions. - Why did the crowd want the royal family to move to Paris? - What was their response when Louis didn't immediately agree? - Do you think it was fair that the guards and servants of the royal family were killed by the crowd? |
