Other rulers may be concerned that the citizens of their nation, seeing the success of the French Revolution (and the American Revolution before it), could revolt against their government. The leaders wanted absolute power, and the ability of a nation to rise up against their government made rulers worrisome for their own countries.
The FR was great because now we dont have kings and queens also we are separated from england and Gr8 Britian~!!
Kings and queens had no role in building the Eiffel tower. The last French king was ousted by the 1848 revolution. The decision to build a landmark 300 meters iron tower was taken in the mid 1880s. France was then a Republic. The connection you can make with kings is that the Eiffel tower had to be completed for the opening of the 1889 World Fair, marking the hundredth anniversary of the French revolution of 1789.

The American Revolution had much influence beyond the political boundary of the new nation. Many liberal movements in Europe took heart from the accomplishment of the American Declaration of Independence, the war itself, and the creation of a new government to replace the British rule over the old colonies. Kings and Queens who believed in the Divine Right of Monarchs, began to see more liberalizing ideas developing among the population. Many peoples wished to either overthrow the idea of monarchy or, at least, establish a constitutional monarchy. The French Revolution was inspired by many of the ideals of the American Revolution, as well as the later revolutions in Central and South America by Spanish colonies wishing to rid themselves of Spanish control. Even into the 20th Century, the ideals of the Declaration and Bill of Rights are credited with inspiring the colonial revolts in Africa. Aside from the political ideals created, the Revolution provided a newly independent nation that would take place in commercial activities with the nations of Europe.
Nearly all European countries were ruled by monarchs (mostly kings, a few queens) in that period.

Most medieval queens in Europe were Christians. Some were not. Aside from those areas of Europe where there were pagans, there were well organized and sophisticated monarchies in Europe that were Muslim, such as those in Spain and Sicily.
There have never been kings and queens of the whole of Europe. Various countries in Europe have had kings and queens from time to time.
Germany and Italy both did not exist as such during the French Revolution. Both areas consisted of a considerable number of bigger and smaller Kingdoms, Bishoprics, Dukedoms etcetera. Most of them did not interfere with the revolution in France. Later on, the French decided to export their new-found revolutionary ideals to these countries, and French armies - mostly under Napoleon and his Marshalls - overran many of the Italian and German states. Napoleon then established of his siblings and in-laws as kings and queens of the newly conquered German and Italian lands.
Kings and queens of Europe
the fact that the French populace were rioting, contesting the Royalty, getting rid of all of the nobility's privileges, imprisoning the King and Queen a few years on, was a very bad exemple for other kings and queens in Europe. Foreign allies of the French royalty attempted to reinstate the 'normal order' in a first coalition, then the Republic's stance, self-confident and unwilling to accept any compromise paved the way for conflicts.
They still exist in Europe.
