I have rounded up a few French language resources for Bastille Day (the French national holiday which is celebrated on 14 July each year). Bastille Day honors the 1790 Feast of the Federation, held a year after the assault on the Bastille on 14 July 1789. The French Revolution brought about significant political and social change to France including the abolition and replacement of the French monarchy with a democratic republic formed on enlightenment principles.
