1. Politically: France before the Revolution was a monarchy, that is, hereditary rule, as was most of Europe. The Revolution literally threw off the monarchy and embraced the notion of a Republic. In doing so, they beheaded their king, Louis XVI. The revolutions proclaimations, embodied in the document "Declaration of the Rights of Man" threatened every other monarchy in Europe. Republican governments are representative, wherein they are chosen by at least some of the people. The kings and nobles of 18th century Europe were afraid of being overthrown.
2. Socially: Of Frances 26 million inhabitants in 1789, about 90% were poor peasants and farmers. The rest were either the nobility or the clergy. In fact, the very imbalance of the country socially begged for revolt. Each stratum of the society was called by one of three estates. The Nobility, including royalty, was the Second Estate, the clergy and the Church was the First Estate, and all of the rest of the people were the Third Estate. After the Revolution all offices were open to those with the most talent. This was never more true than during the First Empire, when Napoleon's many Codes were written and enforced in France. In fact, the Code Napoleon still exists as part of the legal structure of several European nations today. But privilege was looked down upon, and merit was gained by talent.
3. Economically: In this respect there was change on several levels. For one thing, the new government had to command revenues in a sensible fashion and keep the nation solvent, otherwise chaos would result. It almost did, edspecially after 1792 when the wars began. But France's conquests themselves paid dividends in hard currency, as well as many of Europes greatest art treasures. Under Napoleon the Bank of France was established and eventually the new economy took form.

After the French Revolution, a completely new government system was placed. They basically tried to completely rid themselves of any type of monarchy. They took away the Christian 7-day calendar, and replaced it with a 10-day calendar, they implemented ridiculous new laws, and had severe consequences on those who broke them. For instance, if someone didn't address another citizen as "Citizen Smith" or "Citizeness Smith" it could possibly warrant the guillotine.
Because of these laws, many people lost their lives, and the streets were sometimes literally running red with the blood from the guillotine. They would arrest you on the spot and transfer you in mobile cages.
There were many problems in the new government, and it ended up becoming pretty much a Dictatorship with Napoleon. The French people realized this and exiled him to his own island and picked up the monarchy again. He came BACK and ruled for another 100 days, but they took him down again and exiled him back to his island where he plotted his escape until he died of natural causes.
