The French Revolution is thought by many to have begun as the result of the citizens storming the Bastille. For this reason, Bastille Day, July 14th, is still celebrated in France each summer as an important historical date, much like Independence Day in the United States. While many other events led up to the French Revolution, the beginning of the Revolution is generally attributed to the day that French citizens stormed the Bastille in Paris: July 14, 1789.
