The Tennis Court Oath, taken on June 20, 1789, was a pivotal moment in the early stages of the French Revolution. Members of the Third Estate vowed not to disband until a new constitution was established, asserting their rights against the monarchy's oppression. This act of defiance galvanized popular support and symbolized the demand for political reform, contributing to the broader revolutionary movement that sought to dismantle the old regime and establish a more democratic government in France. Ultimately, it marked a significant shift in power dynamics and fueled the revolutionary fervor that led to the overthrow of the monarchy.
The Tennis Court Oath was a revolutionary act, & an assertion that political authority derived from the people and their representatives rather than from the monarchy. It called for a written French constitution
Before the French Revolution, the French were inspired by the Enlightenment Period as well as the American Revolution. The French Revolution lead to many changes in France's government and greatly changed their society.

Edmond Burke condemned the French Revolution as a "digest of anarchy". He was probably the greatest single factor in turning British public opinion against the French Revolution with the publication of his book Reflections on the Revolution in France in 1790.
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.
