| French citizens are starving in poverty while the king, queen, and rich people are feasting it up with all the food and such. Citizens went and stormed the Bastille, shortly after the reign of terror begins with Robespierre cutting off heads left and right with the guillotine. King and queen try to flee to Austria, but they get caught right before they make it and they both get their heads cut off. |

@nagusme
That's how my World History II teacher lecutres. She doesn't just list boring facts. She makes it sounds fun and uses modern slang and such. When she explained the French Revolution, she's like:
So the French people were starving while Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette were getting their feast on... |
