The National Constituent Assembly

The issue that really started alize the growing divide within the national assembly was what france's new political constitution would look like. This writing of a new constitution became so central to the national assembly's identity that back on july the seventh, they had voted to rename themselves the national constituent assembly. A few days after this little name change, the marquis de lafayette came forward and moved that the new they would soon be drafting ought to be prefaced by a formal declaration of rights. The next day, jacques necare was dismissed from office and all hell broke loose in Paris.
