The French Revolution
"French Revolution, one of the major revolutions in European history. The revolution marks a turning point in France history and in world history in general. Forms of government, morals, ideologies, and social development were greatly affected by it in all Europe and even in U.S. The beginning of the French Revolution in generally dated from June, 1789. But the crisis in political and economic affairs in France in that period was so great that social unrest, rioting, and rebellion were common for two years before. The end of the revolutionary periods was marked by the establishment of the Empire by Napoleon in 1804."
