Question

What kind of inspiration did people of france get from USA?

Answer 1

Answer:

Enlightenment philosophy was a major influence. Enlightenment stressed the idea of natural rights and equality for all citizens. The ideas of the enlightenment flowed from Europe to the North American continent and sparked a revolution that made enlightened thought all the more popular back across the Atlantic.

Answer 2

Answer:

The National Assembly in France even used the American Declaration of Independence as a model when drafting the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen in 1789. Much like the American document, the French declaration included Enlightenment philosophies, such as equal rights and popular sovereignty.
