History comes alive in this engaging video, which artfully sets up the first steps of the French Revolution. Students will relate to the idea of nobility living in luxury while 98% of the French citizens went without wealth or rights. The drama of the French Revolution is genuinely reflected in the narrator's passion and annotations of paintings and maps.
