Answer:

French Revolution:-

The French Revolution was a watershed event in modern European history that began in 1789 and ended in the late 1790s with the ascent of Napoleon Bonaparte. During this period, French citizens razed and redesigned their country’s political landscape, uprooting centuries-old institutions such as absolute monarchy and the feudal system. The upheaval was caused by widespread discontent with the French monarchy and the poor economic policies of King Louis XVI, who met his death by guillotine, as did his wife Marie Antoinette. Although it failed to achieve all of its goals and at times degenerated into a chaotic bloodbath, the French Revolution played a critical role in shaping modern nations by showing the world the power inherent in the will of the people.

Outcomes of French Revolution:-

  • The absolute monarchy was abolished that had endured for hundreds of years — essentially since Charlemagne — and only reappeared briefly following the abdication of Napoleon.
  • The feudal system was abolished along with the “three estates” system.
  • The military was completely re-structured. Previously most commissions were in the officer corps were restricted to the sons of nobility and promotions rarely based on merit, and with the dissolution of the aristocracy and clergy, room for “commoners” in the officer corps was created, and a far more democratic and egalitarian military — in the navy as well — was created.
  • The former feudal legal system was completely reformed under Napoleon, and was exported throughout Europe as the Code of Napoleon. It still forms the basis for the French legal system.
  • Napoleon Bonaparte siezed power and spread the seed of revolution throughout Europe. It can be safely said that the revolutions of 1848 were indirectly caused by Napoleon's conquests of Europe and his reforms in much of the areas. It can also be argued that due to the the French Revolution “creating” Napoleon, the 1st and then 2nd world wars occured. Napoleon's conquest of Prussia and the destruction of the Prussian army led to a Prussian — French rivalry that led ultimately to the Franco — Prussian War. The defeat of France was a catalyst in the 1st World War.
  • The dismantling of the Roman Catholic church and the execution or forced exile of thousands of clergy led to a permanent weakening of the church’s power in France, and the privatization of most of the church’s lands.
  • The writing of a constitution that formed the basis for future republican French governments.
  • Millions of lives lost, between the “Reign of Terror, to the pre-Napoleonic Wars to the years of Napoleonic wars — France was at war almost continuously from 1796 — 1812.

Impacts of French Revolution India:-

  • Marked the end of absolute monarchy and paved way for the republican government.
  • Upheld the theory of popular sovereignty and laid the foundations of democratic principles-government should be based on the consent of the governed.
  • The slogan of equality, liberty and fraternity became the watchwords of freedom loving people all over the world.
  • Feudalism and serfdom abolished and the power of the clergy curbed.
  • The Jacobins gave the people the right to vote.
  • New reforms were introduced in education, administration and the judiciary.
