Best Answer

The French Revolution was the period of revolution in France at the end of the eighteenth century starting with the pre-revolution or the aristyocratic revolution in 1787 progressing to more radical events such as the strorming of the Bastillle, the rise of the Jacobins and Sans-cullottes. The Atlantic revolution refers to the idea of a period of many revolutions occurring arround the same time such as the American Revolution (the war of independence) the uprisings in other areas of Europe such ad in Holland and Geneva. The idea of the Atlantic revolution influencing the French revolution has become more criticised in recent years but if you want to know more try reading 'France and the Atlantic Revolution of the Eighteenth Century, 1770-1799' by Jacques Godechot.

In 1791 the ideals of the American and French Revolutions traveled across the Caribbean and the Atlantic to the French-held island colony of Saint Dominique.
