Answer:

Great Fear, French Grande Peur, (1789) in the French Revolution, a period of panic and riot by peasants and others amid rumours of an “aristocratic conspiracy” by the king and the privileged to overthrow the Third Estate. The gathering of troops around Paris provoked insurrection, and on July 14 the Parisian rabble seized the Bastille. In the provinces the peasants rose against their lords, attacking châteaus and destroying feudal documents. To check the peasants, the National Constituent Assembly decreed the abolition of the feudal regime and introduced the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen.

The burning of feudal papers and manor houses showed that France was changing because the peasants would normally be too afraid to do such before.

In pre-revolutionary France, the peasants were part of the Third Estate which:

  • Was below the 1st and 2nd Estates which consisted of the Nobility
  • Held little government authority
  • Had to do what the other estates decided

When the Great Fear came and the peasants burnt the houses of nobles and tore of the feudal papers that gave them authority, it showed that times were changing because the peasants would not normally be so brave.

In conclusion, the peasantry being able to attack nobles showed that France was changing and the power of nobles and royals had been broken.
