Abstract
A prison is stormed and modern France is born. On July 14th 1789, the starving and destitute citizens of Paris riot in search of food and weapons. The people storm the Bastille, dreaded symbol of royal rule, determined to liberate its prisoners and seize its weapons. Its ill fated governor, Monsieur De Launay, eventually surrenders, overwhelmed by the number of besiegers. He becomes the first nobleman to die at the hands of the citizens, and the people of France learn through violent struggle they might realize their dream of a people's republic.
