A quote by a French military and political leader by the name of Napolean Bonaparte. The French revolution was a period of time from 1789-1799. After the Estates General was called in and an unfair voting system was applied, the 3rd estate also known as the Nation Assembly desired change in the French government. They made a oath now known as the "Tenis Court Oath". Violence was accepted by the French people and the revolution became a mess. Buildings destroyed and tens of thousands of people were killed. There was even a period of time called "The Reign of Terror" where people were killed just for not being excited enough about the revolution.

“Liberty, equality, fraternity, or death; - the last, much the easiest to bestow, O Guillotine!” ― Charles Dickens , A Tale of Two Cities. The French Revolution had started during 1789 and lasted until 1794, where people were upset with their own king/leader, King Louis XVI, because of his weak leadership skills so they decided they've had enough and turned sides from him. The French Revolution was based on these ideas where the French people wanted their freedom and human rights, to the point where they fought for it. Inequality was also a big problem in that time period because food was very limited from all the financial problems that were issued. Eventually, they earned the rights they wanted and creating a new and improved nation. So in this case, the three most significant cause of the French Revolution was based on the inequality of their society, the weak leadership of King Louis XVI, and their food and financial crisis. ]]> 2021-10-07 18:05:59 UTC https://padlet.com/slohman/rywggo6kbyckhnay/wish/1800635748 https://padlet.com/slohman/rywggo6kbyckhnay/wish/1800637762 "Every man has a right to risk his own life for the preservation of it." -Jean Jacques Rousseau.
