Question

Describe the legency of French revolution for the people of the world during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries

Answer 1

The French Revolution bore a rich legacy for the peoples of the world during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries because it was the first national movement that adopted the ideals of “liberty, equality and fraternity”. These ideas became the basic tenets of democracy for every nation in the 19thand the 20th century. The Revolution espoused the cause of the masses, sought to abolish the idea of divine right, feudal privileges, slavery and censorship, and upheld merit as the basis for social upgradation. These tenets are important even in the contemporary world for their emphasis on equality and a world free from prejudice. Feudal systems and later, colonisation were abolished by re-working the French Revolution ideals of freedom and equality. Indian leaders such as Raja Ram Mohan Roy were deeply influenced by the ideas that the French Revolution propagated against the monarchy and its absolutism.

It inspired the Germans, Italians, and Austrians to overthrow their oppressive regimes.

Tipu Sultan and Rajaram Mohan Roy are two examples of individuals who responded to ideas coming from the French revolution
