The French Revolution was not a war like the American Revolution. It involved a major change. It involved a number of wars. It started with the overthrow of the absolute monarch Louis XVI. It began with a constitutional monarchy. It disintegrated into the Reign of Terror when anyone who did not think the right way had his or her head chopped off. That included the king and queen. That government was overthrown by the Thermadorians and women ran around without any tops on. In the middle of the chaos, General Napoleon took over the government of France. Napoleon took over to bring order and peace. France was involved fighting several bordering nations. Napoleon fought them all and defeated them all. He continued fighting when it was no longer necessary.
