Europe. France is in Europe.


Why were other countries opposed to the French Revolution?

After the revolution overthrew the King of France and set up the Republic, other European kings and emperors became worried that the revolution would spread- that their own people would want to overthrow them too. Additionally, the Holy Roman Emperor was the brother of Queen Marie Antoinette; he issued a declaration that he would punish the French people if they harmed the French King or Queen. French Republican leaders believed that the declaration was a threat. After the Emperor made his declaration, the French Republic declared war on him and Austria; Austria was ruled by the Emperor's family and also happened to control Belgium, which is right next to France; a lot of French refugees lived in Belgium and the Republic wanted to capture them. Soon thereafter, the Republic executed the king and queen- at which point, pretty much every other country in Europe turned against France.

Napoleon Bonaparte as the First Consul, then as First Consul for Life and finally as the Emperor of the French.
