Moments of Valor: France

The Great French Revolution shook the entire world, and one of the first and most important events of that time was the storming of the Bastille prison-fortress on July 14th, 1789. This date was not celebrated for almost a hundred years until 1880, when July 14th became a National Holiday. For this day, a large military parade was introduced in 1880, then transferred to the Champs-Élysées in 1980.

Hey everyone! We’re happy to be back with a new set of historical decals for this month, five new and five from previous events. We hope you’re enjoying these decal events, sometimes it’s nice to have a bit of a side quest while you play.
