The harvest of 1787 and 1788 had been particularly poor and the cahier des doléances had encouraged the peasantry in their belief that government intervention would alleviate much of the seemingly-inevitable misery. Expectations in June 1789 were high, but unmet by the Constituent Assembly. A series of panic-driven peasant revolts, in face of of (unfounded) rumours that there were groups of brigands roaming the countryside to destroy the harvest, spread across the French countryside leaving few areas untouched.
