Cost of Revolution

I am Theo Coste, a member of the Third Estate, a carpenter, a brother, and a Jacobin member. Initially, I bravely fought for the freedom of all, but over time, doubts crept in. Was the fight I held on for so long truly for the liberation of all?  Delve into my journal to uncover my evolution.

The story of Theo stopped before the end of the reign and terror and unfortunately couldn’t account for the complete revolution. However, viewing from a boarder sense, the French Revolution had a profound impact not only in France but the entire world. From the declaration of men’s right to the levee en masse, documents, and orders slowly brought french from complete bankruptcy to a European superpower, It inspired other nations to fight for their own rights and liberties and brought significant changes in the political, social, and economic systems of France. Furthermore, it laid the foundation for modern democratic principles. Overall, I believe the French Revolution outcome was worth the input.

 

Vive la Chaos

The French Revolution, from 1789 to 1799, was caused by several reasons all reduced to social and economic inequality. Despite much violence and questionable upbringings, the revolution had many lasting changes, including the abolition of feudalism and monarchy, the establishment of democratic principles and finally forming a republic. I believe it was very much worth it as it had a profound impact on France and the world; making it a significant event.
