If someone says before Bastille the Revolution was only of leaders which fact corrects it?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: People had already become active over the bread crisis and the search for arms
A is correct. Even before the storming of the Bastille, people in Paris were affected by high bread prices and shortages, and crowds were actively searching for weapons. This shows that the Revolution was not confined to political leaders and the National Assembly; ordinary people were participating too. D is wrong because cahiers, or lists of grievances, were prepared for the elections to the Estates General in 1789. Exam tip: Remember the Bastille not merely as a fortress, but as a major symbol of popular participation in the Revolution.
