What was the relation between the women's march to Versailles and the bread crisis?

Correct answer: Bread crisis pushed women to demand answers from monarchy

The governing concept is the connection between everyday economic hardship and political action. Bread was the staple food for ordinary families, and rising prices or shortages placed the greatest burden on working people, especially women who managed household food. In October 1789, Parisian women marched to Versailles because they wanted bread and fairer prices, but they also demanded that the king respond to the crisis and the political situation. Their immediate material grievance therefore became pressure on the monarchy. Option A is correct because it links the bread crisis to a demand for political accountability. B denies the documented connection, while C and D misrepresent the march as a celebration or a way to conceal the food problem.
