This is Leon, an ordinary man from the third estate. Growing crops, cutting them, and selling them is what I do, or, at least, for the past 12 years. Recently, I became someone more than just a peasant. I participated in this dramatic event called the French Revolution, joined other people like me, and entirely changed France. If you wonder what happened to a person from selling wheat in rather to survive to a man thinking about the future of his country, come read my rustic story.
Below is the paragraph talking about the continuity and change caused by the French Revolution.
The French Revolution was a time when big changes happened in France. They got rid of the king-governed monarchy and established a new way to run the country called a republic, meaning citizens-led. Also, before the revolution, rich people from the first and second estates were treated with more privileges than the poor people. After the revolution, everyone was treated equally. Even though the revolution’s target was to change something, some things stayed the same. Even though France was a republic after its revolution, Napoleon came to power and he made many decisions for France, just like how Louis did when France was a monarchy. Also, although a democratic system was a target of the French Revolution, political events during revolutionary periods like the Reign of Terror still happened. In addition, France struggled to keep it stable even after becoming a republic instead of a monarchy.
