Answer 1

The event you are referring to is called the "Women's March on Versailles" or the "October March." It took place on October 5-6, 1789, during the French Revolution. A large group of Parisian women, accompanied by men and armed with various weapons, marched from Paris to Versailles to protest the high price and scarcity of bread. They demanded that King Louis XVI address their concerns and provide them with food. The march was successful in pressuring the king and queen to leave Versailles and move to the Tuileries Palace in Paris, where they were under closer surveillance by the revolutionary forces. It was a significant event that demonstrated the power and influence of the people during the early stages of the French Revolution.
