Publisher's Summary

Learn about the history of the French Revolution with iMindsJNR audio learning series for younger minds.

The French Revolution came about because of a long-held displeasure at how the rich lived. While the rich lived comfortably, the common people were forced to pay taxes too high for them to pay. And there was not enough food produced for them to eat. French peasants became so impoverished that visitors to France said many of them were as skinny as skeletons.

In May 1789, King Louis XVI called a meeting of priests, lords and common people. At this meeting it became clear the common people wanted more power. They felt they deserved it as they were the only class required to pay taxes. In June 1789, the common people formed a party called ‘The National Assembly’ to look out for the interests of poor people.
