French Revolution (may 5, 1789 – nov 9, 1799)
Description:
Following the steps of the American Revolution, the French Revolution was caused by a corrupt and useless monarchy. The people of France felt betrayed, so they united as one, overthrew the monarchy, and led France into a period of political turmoil and uncertainty. The final result was a government based on all of the people’s needs and wants, not just the noble’s needs and wants.Added to timeline:
