    The financial crisis in France caused the monarchy to need to collect more taxes, but the nobility did not want to be taxed. This led to grievances from the Third Estate and a division between the estates. The Third Estate formed the National Assembly and took the Tennis Court Oath to create a constitution. The storming of the Bastille was a major early event of the French Revolution. Peasants burned nobles' estates during the Great Fear, and the nobility eventually renounced privileges while reforms abolished the feudal system. The march on Versailles captured the King and Queen and brought them to Paris to later be executed.
