Sinopse

In this episode we delve into the year 1791. The political clubs are getting stronger and adapting rapidly to French politics. This, coupled with various other factors, leads to a rapid rise of radical political ideologies in France. Many French politicians and leaders, like Mirabeau and Lafayette, attempt to slow the rise of radicalism but it becomes near impossible when Mirabeau dies in April. The people then begin turning against the King and Queen and the new nation is on the precipice of another revolution.
