For hundreds of years before the French revolution, France was divided into three Estates, The First Estate (The Clergies) The Second Estate (The Nobles), and The Third Estate (The Peasants), and above all was the king and the queen. The peasants do not have many rights and had to pay all the taxes, while the other estates enjoyed their fancy lives living in palaces. This caused the third estate to think that it was not very fair for them, and eventually, members of the third estate spread revolutionary ideas like reasons and science, which led to a revolution, the French revolution.
This is the French Revolution in plain English!

I have never known anything before about this revolution, and I think you have done a great job of explaining the revolution because your voices were very clear. It was also very funny how you have added the guillotine and the comments you have added for the people who were about to experience death. Something I have learned and understood is that more than 15,000 people were killed in this revolution.
