The French Revolution was a period of dramatic social and political change in France during the late 18th century. It began with widespread dissatisfaction among the French people, who were unhappy with the monarchy’s absolute power, social inequality, and economic hardships.
The revolution saw the overthrow of the monarchy, the rise of radical political groups, and the execution of King Louis XVI. It also led to significant changes such as the Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen, the Reign of Terror, and ultimately the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte.
