The “new ideas” of the enlightenment sparked the revolution. The French Revolution occurred years after the American Revolution, they shared the same common belief of sovereignty and the basic human right. This picture depicts the angry French citizens and their disapproval of King Louis XVI. His excessive spending pushed the country to near bankruptcy. The Third Estate made up of 98 percent of the country but where still being outvoted by French Aristocrats. Rioters invaded Bastille on July 14, 1789 which is a national holiday for the start of the Revolution.

Quote
n 1715, Voltaire was exiled to Tulle for mocking the regent Orleans. In 1717, he returned to Paris, only to be arrested and exiled to the Bastille for a year on charges of writing libelous poetry. Voltaire was sent to the Bastille again in 1726, for arguing with the Chevalier de Rohan (Guy Auguste de Rohan-Chabot)
