Britain and France had been in an on-again-off-again series of
wars for the better part of two centuries at the time, with the
most recent example being what was called in Europe the Seven
Years' War and in North America the French and Indian War. The
government of France saw the revolution as a chance to weaken
Britain in North America and divert British forces from Europe at
little risk to France itself.
What the government of France did not see was that supporting
democracy thousands of miles away might come back to bite them in
the butt in a few years, when their own citizens noticed how well
it was working out for the United States and decided they'd like
some too. France supported the colonists because they opposed
England.
