Why is the capture of the Bastille considered the beginning of the revolution?

During that period in France, the government continued to pursue its anti-popular policy, including the imposition of exorbitant taxes. In addition, on July 9, Louis 16 expressed his desire to reduce the Constituent Council, as well as to remove Jacques Necker from the post of controller of finance. These events were the last straw for the people. In this connection, the Bastille was taken on July 14.
