In Assassin's Creed Unity, which city is being reshaped by the French Revolution?

The story behind the answer

Paris is the city being reshaped by the French Revolution in Assassin's Creed Unity.

The game is set in Paris beginning in 1789, the year the French Revolution started. Players control Arno Dorian, an Assassin who becomes involved in political upheaval, rival factions, and the investigation of his adoptive father's murder.

Unity presents landmarks and districts inspired by revolutionary Paris, including the Notre-Dame cathedral, the Palais de Justice, and the Tuileries area. Crowds are a major feature, reflecting the unrest and mass demonstrations of the period.

Versailles also appears early in the game and is historically connected to the French monarchy, but Paris is the primary setting. London belongs chiefly to Assassin's Creed Syndicate, which takes place later in the 19th century.
