| It is the year 1789 in France. |
|
 | Hey, did you hear about all those women marching to Versailles? | |
|
| Yeah, I heard they were angry about something. | |

|
| I guess King Louis XVI wouldn't accept the National Assembly's decrees on the abolition of feudalism or their Declaration of Rights. | |
|
| Oh. I thought they were upset because their kids were starving. | |
|
|
|

|
|
| Well, I think they went to see him about both actually. And I read that in the end they forced him to accept the new decrees. | |
|
| How interesting. I guess the power does rest with the people after all. | |
