The French Revolution

The French Revolution was the most important part in history for France. It removed monarchy from France and removed the king and queen from power. It also showed that monarchy is not all that good. The revolution showed what terror and crime can do to a civilization.

The French revolution was started because the current king of France was a dictator. The king made everyone in France make food and build palaces for him and his family. The country was broke and starving, and this started an uprising in France.

The start of the Revolution was in the people's representatives meeting with the king's representatives, and them all disagreeing with laws and the way that the king made them work. The people were boiling mad and still starving and they agreed that it was time to go to war. They raided a French weaponry and freed some of the people imprisoned by the king. The war was started.

There were rumors that the king was hording grain in the palace and this made the people bursting with rage. They marched upon the palace and the king tried to flee. As he was escaping with his family the people spotted him and put him under house arrest in the palace. The king was very mad and the people finally made a constitution. Later the king was made obsolete and so they killed him for his crime against France.

The revolution had much more to it then what I have explained and has so much war and rage and crime. It had much much crime and they killed any one who was thought of being loyal to the king. Even after the revolution there was a lot of war because of other countries afraid of losing monarchy. The French revolution was a interesting part of history.
