The French Revolutionwas a pivotal period of social and political upheaval that transformed France, beginning in 1789.... Show more
The storming of the Bastille on July 14, 1789, marked a crucial turning point in the revolution.
Highlight Though only seven political prisoners were held there, the Bastille's significance lay in its arms cache and its symbolism of royal authority.
Quote "The governor of the Bastille had a standoff with the troops and called a cease fire. Once the revolutionaries got to him, they cut his head off and put it on a pike."
Key developments followed
Example The Women's March demonstrated the power of popular action, as citizens forced the royal family to relocate from Versailles to Paris.
The revolution entered a more radical phase in 1792, marked by war and increasing political tension.
Highlight Louis XVI declared war on Austria in April 1792, seeing it as a win-win situation victory would boost his popularity, while defeat might restore his absolute power through foreign intervention.
Key events
Vocabulary The Brunswick Manifesto was a threatening declaration by Prussia's military commander that intensified revolutionary fervor.
In 1792, Louis XVI declared war on Austria, creating a strategic dilemma
Highlight The Brunswick Manifesto, issued by the Prussian army general, threatened to overthrow the revolutionary government and restore the monarchy.
Example France's initial attack on the Austrian Netherlands failed, leading to Prussia's entry into the war on Austria's side.
1793 marked a radical turn in the revolution with Louis XVI's execution in January. The National Assembly expanded the conflict by declaring war on Britain and the Dutch Republic.
Definition The Levée en masse was France's first military draft, requiring all able-bodied unmarried men to serve in the army.
Highlight This military reform created Europe's largest army, dramatically changing the war's dynamics.
The Committee of Public Safety, led by Maximilien Robespierre, became the de facto government, initiating a period of intense political persecution.
The French Revolution emerged from a perfect storm of social, economic, and political factors. France's support of the American Revolution and the Seven Years War had left the government in severe debt, while King Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette maintained their lavish lifestyle at Versailles.
Highlight While nobility lived in luxury, 98% of the French population suffered from famine and bore the burden of taxation.
The Convocation of the estates general brought together France's three social classes
Definition The Estates General was France's general assembly representing the three social classes, called by Louis XVI to address the nation's financial crisis.
Example The voting system was inherently unfair - despite representing 98% of the population, the Third Estate's 600 representatives were easily outvoted by the combined 600 representatives of the clergy and nobility.
Vocabulary The Tennis Court Oath was a pivotal moment where members pledged to create France's first constitution.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend
