After the Bastille was stormed on July 14, 1789, panic and unrest spread through the countryside in the period known as the Great Fear. Peasants attacked aristocratic estates and destroyed records of feudal obligations. Louis XVI did not step down, and the Estates-General had already been transformed into the National Assembly before the Bastille fell.
