Q.3. Write briefly about the two similarities and two differences you find between French Revolution and
Russian Revolution?
Answers
Answer:
Answer: Similarities
There was a massive loss of life, especially in the ruling class. King Louis XVI and his wife Marie Antoinette both were beheaded by guillotine and Tsar Nicholas II and the entire Romanov family were shot to death. Many lesser nobles and pro-government generals were killed in purges during the French Revolution and Russian Revolution.
Starvation and the cold winter that had taken its toll on the people, causing a bread riot on both Revolutions. In the French Revolution, the women marched to Versailles and chased after Marie Antoinette, fixed upon killing her. They then forced the royal family into the Tuilleries Palace in Paris so they could keep a good eye on them. In the Russian Revolution, the women were calmer and simply paraded down the streets on International Women's Day, simply wanting some bread to contain there hunger.
Differences
A difference between the two revolutions is that the Russians had an unsuccessful "pre-revolution" in 1905.
The French decided towards a democracy while the Russian government became communist. Both the French and Russian revolutions had similar causes but ended up with different results. Both of these countries had different internal factors that cause the results. The Russians had Lenin and the French had the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen.
