Best Answer

The American Revolution and the French Revolution were two entirely different things.

The American Revolution was a colonial revolt that only succeeded because the British neither wanted to keep the colony, nor did it want to dedicate the huge navy and army it possessed to a rebellious colony.

Google: howe commission, tea act, stamp act, and the American Revenue Act.

The French revolution was a rebellion of the lower class in Paris, and the surrounding countryside, against the oppression and dominance of the rich upper class. It succeeded in deposing the king and queen, and would be successful in improving the lives of the lower class until the July revolution re-introduced a despotic monarchy.

So, how exactly do you define failure?
