History of Bastille Day:


The Bastille is a medieval fortress or a prison in Paris. Many people in France associated it with the harsh rule of the Bourbon monarchy in the late 18th century. On July 14, 1789, troops stormed the Bastille. This was a crucial event in the beginning of the French Revolution.
Official celebrations were held in Paris on June 30, 1878, to honor the Republic of France, but on July 14, 1879, more official celebrations were held. These included a military review in Longchamp near Paris and celebrations all over the country. A known politician named Benjamin Raspail proposed that July 14 should become a holiday in France in 1880. The law was enacted within weeks and Bastille Day was a public holiday for the first time on July 14, 1880.
