The Great Fear in the Countryside (26 juill. 1789 – 26 août 1789)
Description:
In the countryside, rumors of noble plots against peasants initiated a wave of panic and violence. Peasants attacked manor houses and destroyed feudal records to force the National Assembly into abolishing feudal privileges. This move furthered revolutionary principles and set the stage for important documents such as the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen.Ajouté au bande de temps:
