Introduction

The French Revolution was all due to political and social upheaval, lasting from 1789 to 1799. The Revolution resulted in the removal of the Bourbon monarchy in France and in the establishment of the First Republic.

It was created by many causes, the most important was the inequality of the people, they didn't want taxation. The French citizens did not want anyone to be above them to boss them around, they wanted every person to be equal with equal rights and class.

The first thing in order to do this was an uproar of violence to destroy the government and society. They changed the way they lived, their society, their religion and their economy forever.
