In this time period everyone was a suspect or an "enemy" of the revolution, which later led to massive blood shed and massacres. For example, people were killed for the slightest mention that something wasn't right about the Revolution. Around 40,00 people were guillotined during the Reign of Terror. The guillotine was a device used to behead people. ]]> 2016-11-03 18:28:13 UTC https://padlet.com/340771/2bq8fhdihpi4/wish/135198202 340771 https://padlet.com/340771/2bq8fhdihpi4/wish/135198248 The estates-general was the legislative assembly while under the Old Regime. The meetings weren't called together for 175 years, until 1789 when King Louis XVI wanted to ask for money for his government. He needed money because he'd spent all of it on the wars with Britain. ]]> 2016-11-03 18:28:20 UTC https://padlet.com/340771/2bq8fhdihpi4/wish/135198248 340771 https://padlet.com/340771/2bq8fhdihpi4/wish/135198476 One cause of the French Revolution had come from treating the third class poorly, and ignoring them. The third class had an immense tax amount, were the people barely were able to pay. Only the third class was getting taxed while the clergy and the nobles refused to pay leaving the peasants to take the responsibility. The taxes were unnecessary for France. When the enlightenment came, it had inspired the bourgeois to revolt but still were being ignored by the king.  ]]> 2016-11-03 18:28:52 UTC https://padlet.com/340771/2bq8fhdihpi4/wish/135198476 340771 https://padlet.com/340771/2bq8fhdihpi4/wish/135198560 Napoleon Bonaparte joined the army of the new government in 1795, this is when he led soldiers against French royalists who attacked the National Convention. He was thought of as a hero after this event. Later in 1799 he used his troops to take control of the government, which he then later took the title Emperor of France. 
The Napoleonic Code was a French civil code. This code basically was a set of laws for the French people to obey. Some of the laws included depriving women of their individual rights, which gave men a stronger authority over their families. ]]> 2016-11-03 18:29:07 UTC https://padlet.com/340771/2bq8fhdihpi4/wish/135198560 340771 https://padlet.com/340771/2bq8fhdihpi4/wish/135199609 In 1814, the leaders of different nations met to draw up peace plans for Europe. These meetings were later called Congress of Vienna. Klemens Von Metternich, minister of Austria, was the most important person at those meeting. The effects it left after were that ideas of freedom and independence changed the politics of Europe and beyond. It also inspired many other countries to form new nations. ]]> 2016-11-03 18:31:36 UTC https://padlet.com/340771/2bq8fhdihpi4/wish/135199609 340771 https://padlet.com/340771/2bq8fhdihpi4/wish/135282173  The American and French Revolution were almost the same because they both fought to break free from monarchy, they had their own declarations written, they were both influenced by Enlightenment ideas, and they both lasted around the same time.
Some differences on the other hand had been that the French killed their king but the Americans didn't, there was much more bloodshed in the French Rev. than American Rev., France declared war on other countries unlike America   ]]> 2016-11-04 03:46:25 UTC https://padlet.com/340771/2bq8fhdihpi4/wish/135282173 340771 https://padlet.com/340771/2bq8fhdihpi4/wish/135282201 The Declaration of Rights of Man was a document written during the French Rev. inspired by the Declaration of Independence that listed the rights of the people and the principles of the Revolution.
