Bastille - what is it?

The start of a bloody revolution in France, a period where many thousands died in paranoid France. This period also saw France's aristocracy takes thier money elsewhere, making the country poor and weak. Bastille day marks the beggining of one of the worst perods of France's history.

Why don't the froggies celebrate October the 19th (1453- end of the hundred years' war) or the 7th of January (1558- liberation of calais- the actual end of the hundred years war) as a national holiday.

Bastille - meaning

Bastille Day also known as La FΓͺte Nationale (National Celebration) or le quatorze juillet (the fourteenth of July) is the French national holiday which has been celebrated on 14 July each year since 1880.

Contrary to popular belief, it does not commemorate the storming of the Bastille as this day was considered too bloody.
It commemorates the 1790 FΓͺte de la FΓ©dΓ©ration, which was celebrating the end of divine right of kings and the first anniversary of the storming of the Bastille on 14 July 1789

On May 21, 1880, Benjamin Raspail MP tabled the legislation making the July 14 the national holiday.

To celebrate Bastille day, usually firework take place in July the 13th for small towns and July the 14th for big ones.

They are best known for songs such as Pompeii that got to number 2 in the UK charts and other songs such as bad blood and flaws who were all written by them.

Bastille

Bastille is an amazing band from London. The members consist of Dan, Kyle, Woody and Will. They are called Bastille because Dan's birthday is on the 14th of July (Bastille Day). Dan is the singer, Kyle is keyboards, Woody is the drums and Will is the guitar/bass. They are known for their songs, "Pompeii", "Bad Blood" and "Flaws", but they have loads of other unreal covers and songs. In other words, they're amazing.

"I really want to see Bastille playing in the Indiependance festival in Mitchelstown, Cork." said Ben
