During the French Revolution, many members of the aristocracy and the royal family fled the nation to escape the political upheaval and potential violence. Notably, King Louis XVI and his family attempted to escape to Varennes in 1791 but were apprehended. Additionally, many nobles, referred to as émigrés, left France to seek refuge in neighboring countries, fearing for their safety as revolutionary sentiments escalated. Their flight contributed to the tensions between revolutionary France and other monarchies in Europe.

No, Marquis de Lafayette was not a general during the 1794 phase of the French Revolution. By that time, he had lost his influence and had fled France in 1792 due to the escalating violence and radicalization of the revolution. Lafayette had initially supported the revolution but became increasingly disillusioned with its direction and the rise of the radical Jacobins. In 1794, he was in exile, and his role in the revolution had effectively ended.

The Huguenots fled France. Other countries adopted absolutism. It began the slow but steady movement from a wealthy European Nation to a debtor Nation. This position was advanced under Louis XV and was made even worse as a result of the Seven Years Wars and the French aid to the United States during the American Revolution under the leadership of King Louis XVI. By 1789 the National debt had developed into a crisis which became the French Revolution. It should be noted that France became a patron of the Arts and of Architecture during his reign, and remains a leader in that cultural arena even today.
