The Palace of Versailles was the principal royal residence of France from 1682 until the French Revolution in 1789. It was originally a small hunting lodge built by Louis XIII in 1623 but was extensively expanded and redesigned by his son, Louis XIV, who moved the French court and government there in 1682. The palace and its vast gardens were designed to demonstrate the king's absolute power and the grandeur of France. It became a symbol of the French monarchy and the center of French political and cultural life for over a century. The palace features numerous halls, apartments, and chapels, as well as galleries filled with paintings and sculptures. Its architecture and decoration reflect the opulence and grandeur of Louis XIV's reign. The gardens are also famous for their elaborate fountains, statues, and formal parterres. Today, the Palace of Versailles is a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the most popular tourist attractions in France

The Montgolfier brothers ( Joseph and Étienne Montgolfier ) hot air balloon on 19 September 1783. The balloon was made of cotton canvas with paper glued onto both sides, measured 18.47m tall by 13.28m wide, and weighed 400 kg. It was named Le Réveillon after Étienne's friend Jean-Baptiste Réveillon, the Director of the Royal Manufacture of printed paper, who had designed a motif on a sky-blue background decorated with the king’s cypher. At the blast of a cannon, at 1 pm, a sheep, duck and cockerel entered the round wicker basket tied to the balloon by a rope. The balloon left the ground and soared 600 metres into the air. Damaged by a rip in the fabric, it descended slowly eight minutes later after travelling 3.5 km and came back to earth in the Wood of Vaucresson, at the Maréchal crossroads.

French Revolution - The Estates General (or States-General) of 1789 was the first meeting since 1614 of the French Estates-General, a general assembly representing the French estates of the realm: the clergy (First Estate), the nobles (Second Estate), and the common people (Third Estate). Summoned by King Louis XVI to propose solutions to his government's financial problems, the Estates-General sat for several weeks in May and June 1789 but came to an impasse as the three estates clashed over their respective powers. It was brought to an end when many members of the Third Estate formed themselves into a National Assembly, signaling the outbreak of the French Revolution
