In the Reign of Terror.
1789, Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette. There were also successful revolutions against Charles X in 1830 and Louis-Philippe in 1848. So, paradoxically, of the 23 French revolutions, involving complete change of Constitution, that there have been so far, only 3 were directed against Kings.

First of all, we should clarify that Les Miserables is set in the French Revolution of 1823, not the far more famous French Revolution of 1789. By 1823, Louis XVI had long been executed, the Reign of Terror had long ended, the Napoleonic Wars had ended, and the Bourbon monarchy had been restored.However, while the story of Les Miserables is not true, e.g. there was no thief name Jean Valjean who adopts a girl named Collette and is pursued by a police officer named Javert, the general ambiance of the story is mostly accurate. France at that time had rampant poverty, high levels of homelessness, abusive factory conditions, repressive government, and the air of revolution. The view that Victor Hugo (the author) brings to those conditions is nostalgia and pity, but it is not anachronistic or mythified.As for actual historic sources, Hugo based Valjean's character very loosely on the life of Eugene Francois Vidocq, an ex-convict who became a successful businessman widely noted for his social engagement and philanthropy. He also references the French Revolution of 1823, which is portrayed relatively accurately, but does not show completely and utterly it was crushed.
As far as I'm aware, The French Revolution was started by the French, not by George Washington, who was and had been the only US President at the time of the French Revolution. Unless the Americans have built a time machine.

Many of the ideas in the French Revolution were first expressed in the American Declaration of Independence. The concept of the Committee of Public Safety came from the United States. Many of the ideas in the French Revolution came from Rousseau and Voltaire, especially Rousseau. It has given the two governments a decidedly different outlook. Rousseau has the French government far more involved in the lives of the citizens than the American government.
The war was far away and America thought it best to sort out its own problems first. It was a new state after all.
Based on this information, he argues that the French Revolution produced far more negative outcomes than positive ones.
Because the economic problems in France probably date as far back as the Reign of Louis XIV and he inherited major French debts that were created by Louis XV.

I believe it's Benedict Arnold, he was by far the best general in american history. Sadly, all he is remembered for is being a traitor. He was the hero at more than 4 battles. Without him we don't win the revolution. He kept us alive in the revolution multiple times. He was the hero at the Battle of Saratoga, which was the turning point of the revolution, which offically got the French on our side, but never got the credit he deserved.
It was the first time a country went so far to the left, politics were almost completely far-right up to that point and people tend not to like their opposites.
