What were the lasting social political and cultural effects of the French Revolution?

Answer 1

The French Revolution of 1789 (and the following decade) made quite a number of short-term and long-term impacts upon Europe and upon the world. One short-term effect was the toppling of the French ruling dynasty, soon to be followed by the installment of the military Dictatorship (and then imperial governance) of Napoleon. Longer-term effects followed through the rising power of France: revolutionary ideas spread throughout Europe, planting seeds that would later sprout into a harvest of nationalist and vaguely democratic movements that brought about the end of the monarchic age and the maturing of European Modernity.

Answer 2

The French Revolution abolished the aristocracy and monarchy rule and established democratic principles in France. This sentiment spread throughout the world, influencing similar movements in Latin America, for example.

Answer 3

It improved daily life for the French people, as they abandoned their feudal traditions and obligations. It also showed other European countries that they need not live under tyranny or bad government. Other monarchies in Europe agreed to reforms, rather than face the fate of the French nobility.

The french revolution made a lot of changes happen... these changes were supposed to make France a fairer country, but it did not mean that it would be the end of the monarchy. Everyone in the National Assembly thought the king should still be the head of government but Louis refused to agree to the end of the feudalism or the declaration of the rights of man and the citizen...
