Do you know what is the Bastille Day?
Bastille Day was a turning point in French history. On July 14, 1789, Parisians stormed the Bastille prison, a symbol of the monarchy's absolute power. This bold act marks the beginning of French Revolution and the fight for liberty, equality, and fraternity. The storming of the Bastille showed the power of the people and their demand for change, which lead to the fall of the monarchy and rise of the republic.
Joyeux 14 juillet!
