The Whiskey Rebellion protesters were influenced by the French Revolution's emphasis on popular sovereignty and resistance against oppressive taxation. The revolutionary ideals of liberty, equality, and the right to revolt against unjust government resonated with American farmers who felt burdened by the federal excise tax on whiskey. Many saw parallels between their struggle against what they perceived as unfair taxation and the French fight against tyranny, inspiring them to assert their rights and challenge federal authority. This connection to the broader revolutionary spirit fueled their determination to resist.
