Best Answer

It was the Etats Generaux, or Estates-General, which were a popular assembly composed of three estates, the nobility, the clergy and the 'third estate', which declared itself 'Assemblee Nationale' in June 1789.

Really, the French Revolution began with the Estates-General and the Serment du Jeu de Paume (or Tennis Court Oath) on June 20 1789 during which the representatives of the third estate took the pledge to write a constitution.

American response to the French Revolution?

America was torn in response to the French Revolution. On the one hand, it was the French government that funded the Americans in their Revolution against England, but on the other hand, the revolutionaries in France wanted the same rights the Americans just recently fought for, and the Americans believed the deserved the same freedoms they now owned. Therefor, the Americans overall didn't take a side in the Revolution, but helped build the new French government after the Revolution. America has since been a strong ally of France.

Who supported the french revolution?

The French revolution drew divided feelings around the world. In Europe, absolute monarchs began to sense their vulnerability and felt obligated to make an example of the new government to discourage their subjects from taking the same route. In the United States, the feelings were split, Federalists like Alexander Hamilton were appalled at the Revolution, and wanted to distance themselves from France. The Democratic Republicans, like Thomas Jefferson, however, were inspired by the Revolution and wanted to show their support.


What are the similarities and differences in the French and Arab revolutions?

The Latin American Revolution was similar to the French Revolution because, as a revolution, the people realized that they were being mistreated and were fighting for what they believed in, as well as equality or more representation. Other similarities include violence and a Napoleonic influence. Differences include that the Latin American Revolution was a revolt against a king by his overseas colonies, while the French Revolution was a revolt of the lower class against the upper class and the King. The Latin American Revolution also was a revolution for freedom and independence (similar to the American Revolution), while the French Revolution was being fought to overthrow the king. Another difference was that after the Latin American Revolution, the church gained power, while after the French Revolution, the church lost power.


Why do people think the French Revolution and Industrial Revolution are the same?

A lot of people are confused between the French and Industrial Revolutions because (1) they both have the word "revolution" in them, (2) they both take place in Europe, (3) and they both take place at the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th century. However, the French Revolution and Industrial Revolution are fundamentally different affairs.
