Answer 4

haha thios must be a joke. um okay lets see...im gonna guess the answer is that there never was one because the french cant fight for c**p

Answer 5

1789 when the French people where fed up of the hunger they had, while at the castles big parties where going on.

Surprised they got beheaded? Still Robespierre the one who gave the orders was not all that clean.

Most of the beheading found place near the Bastille, now it's called Place de la Concorde.

There's only one stone left of the Bastille they left in as remembrance of the liberation of France.

Answer 6

Which one?

Answer 7

the french revolution started in 1789 tell 1799 i belive.

Answer 8

At what stage?  The French Revolution was a gradual thing.  You might want to check www.historychannel.com and look up exact dates.  However, some historians fight over dates.  I believe most historians believe the official date is when Marie was taken to the Bastille.

I might suggest a book Knight of the Masion Rouge to you.  It actually gives you the "real" story into Marie Antionette.  She was a very misunderstood individual in history.  The book is historical fiction,however Alexander Dumas seems to have his accounts pretty accurate.

Good luck
