<p>I got a test on this on Monday, i was feeling a little doubtful on these two things:</p>
<p>Impact of the French Revolution
1. Social groups that benefited or did not benefit in France & Europe
2. Conservatism</p>
<p>Women benefited cuz they were finally given rights, peasants and shiz were happy cuz there were no more seigneurial dues, and the middle-class did gain some influence-even though the Declaration of Rights of Man were later revoked. The Jacobins(political) suffered cuz their got their ass raped by Danton and his followers after the Terror went too far. Then, the Directory was established, which gave a voice and representation to the people. Furthermore, nobles lost power due to the August 4th Decree and therefore were screwed. The monarchy was the first to go since Louis XVI and Marie Antionette let the financial situation get ****ed up and ignored the general public. Thus, French peasants stormed the Bastille and the Vendee Rebellion occured after the monarchy was overthrown and all hell broke loose. Famous people who were guillotined during the Terror and before were Antionette, Louis, Robespierre, and Olympe de Gouges. France transitioned from an absolute monarchy to a Republic to a Consititutional Republic during the French Revolution. Mr. Boneparte would eventually make France an empire when he got his little ass over to France from Italy.;)</p>
<p>I hope I explained this **** better than your teacher.</p>
<p>thanks, very gangsta-like lol</p>
