In Chapter II, you saw the winter of discontent: the King hunting, the Queen posing, the people freezing. Now you see the response. First, the clergy and nobility crush the Third Estate under the weight of taxes and feudal dues. The people are ready to throw off the burden. Then, the Estates-General opens at Versailles. After 175 years, the three estates meet again. The 1790 engraving by Helman and Monnet captures the event as it was seen by the people of the time: a detailed, contemporary record of the three estates gathering for the first time in 175 years. The monumental painting by Auguste Couder, commissioned by King Louis-Philippe in 1836, reimagines the same scene for a new generation. It shows the Third Estate facing the King alone, representing 98 percent of France but holding only one-third of the votes. The clergy and nobility oppose them. They demand change. And they will not leave. Finally, locked out of their meeting hall, the deputies gather at a nearby tennis court. They swear an oath: never to disband until France has a constitution. The Revolution now has a birth certificate. The twilight is over. The fire has begun. 🔥 Sustainable Ecosystem Impact Every Rebel Journey fuels our self-sustaining economic engine. 80% of primary sales and secondary royalties are used to BUY & BURN $REBL tokens.
