June 21st, 1789

I have heard a strange thing. It seems that yesterday a large group of men have banded together because they don’t think that our King Louis XVI. They want to overthrow the government, and never have kings and queens again. Instead, they want the people of France to govern themselves. I do not know how this would happen. If they plan to attack, the King’s army is much to strong for them to defeat. If they try a political attack, they would have no standing. I do not know much about politics, but this much I do know.
