--Important in it's century : The French Revolution was the most important event of the 1700's because it marked one of the first violent protests in favor of democracy and a republic for the people. It also sparked the desire for a more secularized lifestyle in a time of a society based a lot on religion. Using violence to get political rights is a reoccurring theme in European history, and that is largely influenced by the French Revolution
