They both fought to free themselves of tyranny. America fought to free itself from the rule of George III, while France fought to free itself from the rule of its monarchs and nobles. Although the American Revolution was not as violent as the French Revolution, they both made a big impact at cost many lives. One can also see the similarities through their connection with each other at this time. During the American Revolution, the French aided in the defeat of the British navy and land forces. This, in turn, cost them and put them in a deficit. This deficit added to the need for Revolution in France. Both Revolutions established a constitution with their own forms of government and citizen rights.

The final stage of the French Revolution was the Directory. This was the establishment of Napoleon as France's new leader. After the American Revolution, President George Washington became President. After both Revolutions there was a strong and influential leader established.

How did Napoleon spark the revolutions that erupted in Latin America?

Napoleon's invasion of Spain in 1808 weakened Spanish authority in its Latin American colonies, creating a power vacuum that fueled desires for independence. The resulting chaos and the establishment of a puppet government in Spain inspired Creole leaders in Latin America to challenge colonial rule. Additionally, Enlightenment ideas and the example of successful revolutions, such as the American and French revolutions, further motivated these movements.
