The good things about the French Revolution.

Loads of people say the French Revolution was a bad thing. Loads just go on and on about the executions of war criminals, and oppressors, as if that is all that happened.

I have even read some idiot internet sites claiming that French Revolution created nothing, except blood and gore. The Nazis, felt the Revolution was a disgrace, as it just achieved death, and nothing else. This is rubbish it achieved more than any human event in history, other than the great religions, and Columbus's more fateful to Natives, arrival in the Americas. Look at http://www.lonympics.co.uk/

Here is my list of what the Revolution achieved. Look at http://www.lonympics.co.uk/

The French are not better than anybody else, it is just that they had a horrible regime, by French people, which could be ousted in this way. In reality the Revolution was inspired by Pan-European currents, and was aided by the major fact was that this was Europe's largest country after Russia and Germany, of which one of them was disunited, and the other was so far in the East, it was less involved in other European lands, meant France's people could oust their royal regime, without a stronger regime easilly installing the ancien regimes very very quickly, as happened to many lands just before and after, but Russia would have been an important event too, as in 1917, and 1991, if the French Revolution had occurred there even at that time.

So here we go, here is what the Revolution achieved, and it may even be more. after this list I shall say what happened before the revolution, and what evil things royals in France alone did after.

And what democracy did for France, and the world in the modern era.

It achieved in the period of the Revolution

* It freed 1.5million French serfs

* It essentially freed 10 million French sharecroppers, by ending feudalism, and handing allot of land to cultivators.

* It upped spending on welfare, even instituting pensions, for a large period. which helped there be no real famines

beforehand orphans were kept virtually in stacks, well not that bad, but virtually

* The French Revolution began the first state pensions, after a idea by Thomas Paine,

* It legalised the Protestant and Jewish religions, and let each of these become officials.

* It allowed Jews, and Protestants freedoms, they were barred from, in being allowed to migrate, and become any job.

* It created more equality, so that a lord was not now felt to be superior, just for being a lord Look at http://www.lonympics.co.uk/

* It freed 10,000 African slaves in France

* It severely restricted the horrendous practice of the Castrati, in the end ending this murder of 1000s babies a decade

* It allowed religious members to give up their religious ways. Like loads of monks, and priests quit, as the Revolution allowed them to.

* It disbanded the discriminatory guilds, that banned many lower class people from certain jobs, and helped make prices high.

* It stopped the practice for enclosures, A major success seeing what happened in Britain, which was the taking of land, by the rich, for their ways. In France this Highland Clearances style project was ended, so French agriculture helps France have a higher Life expectancy than Britain

* It banned the remnants of torture, something that according to rumour was still occurring before the Revolution for even minor political criticism.

* It rampantly reduced duelling. A practice that fell rapidly after the Revolution replaced the ideals, of honour and macho-chivalry, with equality liberty and fraternity, One of the spurs to the reign of terror, was horrible scumbag trained sword fighter higher class people, challenging untrained Revolutionaries, to duels, and knowing that honour said they could not refuse it. This death squad, method was beaten by the revolution, and reign of terror, and making people ashamed to say they were duellists as it would associate them with the old regime, and single them out for taxes, and execution. Totally about idealism, beating the principles of bullying, and anciens.Look at http://www.lonympics.co.uk/

* It let the poor have rights as equal, as the rich, as I said before, so they could more easily become rich. like the American dream.

* It ended tithes to aristocrats, and the church which saw them get loads of cash, off peasants

* It ended other unfair church rulings over the population, such as restrictions on them, and forcing them to church, and also cash to them.

* It ended million dead famines

* It reduced the power of right wing French men, the third most dangerous form of human in Europe.

* It gave the French left power, a great force

* It started female emancipation, as the starters of the feminists started in this event

* It legalised gays, so they were not punished anymore Look at http://www.lonympics.co.uk/

* It closed corrupt galling wasteful palaces

* It legalised Deists, and allowed them to be important

* It abolished arbitrary court power of the king

· It abolished special privileges aristocrats had, like challenging lowers to duels, and such, and in cases attacking, and beating them, even as of their power whipping,
· From the internet alone I see that went unpunished in some lands

* it scared bullies

* it abolished corvee reducing it loads

* it abolished road block toll roads and canals, which helped Gypsies,

* It allowed more different forms of marriage, more liberal

* it allowed divorce

* It opened more schools

* It freed the remaining Portuguese slaves

* It created free speech for people to be able to condemn the regime long term, (obviously not for bullies to offend the weak) and also not during emergency wars and counter revolutions

* it stopped the kidnappings by religious orders

* less corvee

* legalised poaching, of game and mushrooms, even during famines

* freer Gypsies Look at http://www.lonympics.co.uk/

* no threat of Gypsies being deported in a genocidal scale to the colonies, as before the Revolution the king was planning to evict all Gypsies to colonies. No colonies of France were outside unhealthy for new comers in those times, This would just have been a death camp proposal.

* legalised high heels for lower classes

* St Pierre and Miquelon people, not evicted after, a while, as the Brits now got scared to attack France

* Freer movement

* It replaced archaic muddled up, weights and measures, that were for illiterate eras, with decimilisation

* It freed Haiti's slaves, as of Haitians moves

* It freed millions of neighbouring serf Europeans so caused serfdom to end across Europe long term

* It freed millions of neighbouring sharecroppers

* It fell lower class inferiority complexes

*It created nicer prisons and asylums, and started to try and solve insanity by science

* It freed Maltese Jewish slaves, more further down the page

* It ousted the illiberal Egyptian master race style dictatorship

* It showed brutal royals are, in how they committed more massacres than the Left in the era

* it encouraged slavery to end as of Haiti's actions Look at http://www.lonympics.co.uk/

* it ended Ragusan mass inequality caste status (Ragusa was a state on the Adriatic Coast)

* It sees and encourages some Russian liberalism, in Estonia quickly

* it encouraged democracy in Europe and the World, with the US revolution of a little earlier

* it brought equality before law in France, and a fairer justice system

* it inspired a Faeroese trader to break the faminous conditions of his land, saving loads of lives, and inspiring freed trade there and in Iceland,

* It encouraged a fall in anti-Irish views, as of causing the end of the Irish Protestant parliament

* this all reduced Irish inequality long term, over a C, which in the end stopped the famines, or actually it when all Irish people got the vote, as they got more power, so government could not ignore the, as it had in mid 18th C and the Mid 19th C famines, and the vote only came to more Irish people in the late 19th Century as of a fear of the elites fear of a Revolution in Britain

* it liberates many Poles, yes only briefly, but that brought cheer to some, for a while, whioch is more than nothing, and good,

* It encourages South American independence revolts, which long term freed it's people. i.e in Mexico, from feudal oppression

* it fells famine across Europe, from large scale in 1770, across Europe, to fearfully hardly any in Revolutionary occupied areas, after 1789, as the regimes no fear the people.

* It causes Britain's 1831 democratisation Look at http://www.lonympics.co.uk/

* it starts proper welfare, some make the claim that post 1870s Germany had the first Welfare State, not quantifying that statement in any way, actually revolutionary France, started one beforehand, I hope this sorts that out,

* it makes people's idealists our philosophers, who need to be up there as of a special brain, it's not some random king any more,

* Helps Corsica, suppresses it's badness

* aids Channel Isles by more money to it

* Makes Britain surrender more power to Quebec, helping it,

* Attacks Sardinian feudalism

* helps Portuguese liberals

* encourages Greek freedom, if you look at the family tree, or family history of their revolution, most were inspired by French Revolutionary beliefs, as was a Attaturk, so if not for these, both these lands would be under feudal slavery,

* allows women to inherit more

* invents the tin can

* Criminalizes paedophilia

* Deciphered hieroglyphics

* The first Museums, some say the showing of the Royals treasures by the Republic in 1793 was the first, truly public one

* Some also claim the opening of royal parks allowed picnics, in France, a small thing to many, but something quite great for another large selection of the people,

* ups the treatment of solders, and navy

* Makes French more official than Latin, and more easy to understand French, so the French people can liase with government sections more fficiently and comfortably, very good,

* meritocracy upped immensely, good for many many, which in a way could help all, Look at http://www.lonympics.co.uk/

OK so we have that which is allot. I will now give a short history of the Revolution. Before the revolution France was besset by terrible absolutist rule, with corrupt kings, and aristocrats spending millions on themselves, and taxing the poorest peasants as much as possible, from a peasantry who thought eating one pig a year, made you someone to call rich, to slavers operating from Nice, who plied the royals with cash. The worst famine of the century was in 1770 and killed 1.2 million people. according to Voltaire, but sizable numbers died in other years. As this went on, even during famines the rich lived in such wealth that they could build massive palaces, and gardens, and shoot poachers during famines, and hang rioters even more. The main causes of the Revolution was the people who enacted it, they were liberal intelectuals, and proto-socialists who felt society should change, and that the shackles, of monarchy and the church should be ousted. The biggest factor though was massive unrest among the peasants and dissatisfaction with their lot. You might also say the arrogance of the elite was a factor, as they loved their position so much they barely made any compromises. Indeed the reason why the monarchs were executed was as they tried to form alliances with foreign countries to invade and crush the revolution, these actions caused the deaths of more people again, as the French left, and the people, would not stand for that, and made one of the most formiddable, passionate armies in history. As I say the actions of the horrible monarchs caused intervention from outside, and these countries eventually caused the Reign Of terror, by pushing the revolution up against the wall, they had to execute the monarch, as the monarchs made Ceacescu's corruption, look like Gandhi, and was asking foreign lands to invade, for him, The reign of terror regime, I think most will say was wrong, but it's good point was, that it eventually defeated the invasions by many countries, and counter revolutions. a defeat of fascist royal invasions, that saved many millions of people. And then encouraged as of the war agaist France and against liberty, caused Napoleon's coup. Napoleon was a very moderate revolutionary, and went so far right, that he declared himself emperor, but accpeted nearly all the Revolutions points, so became far more popular than the monarchs wer. In the end after decades of hard work, Napoleon made huge errors of judgement and lost the war. The conquering armies of the German states, Russia, the Italian states, the Pope, Britain, Spain, the Dutch, and more, saw their newly imposed king, almost ousted in another revolution till he finmally promissed to not oust the revolution's main causes. A sign of the success of the Revolution was that in 1817, dring a massive famine, the death rate in France barely rose much, as the French monarch now feared Revolution, instead of saying Goverment does not have a duty and obligation to feed starving peasants as they did before, they accepted they had to give some help. Though it has to be admitted some died, but the fact French peasants owned their own land, in many cases, meant that before 1789, they were the poorest North West European nation, by far in living standards, but now were level, or better than many. The new kings though tried to instill their ways. They imposed a move for censorship, and more power to the church, and even made progress in getting the French people, to pay taxes that would compensate the aristocrats that had had their massive amounts of land taken from them in the 1790s. They also threatened to invade Haiti, unless iut gave them so much money that Haiti today is still a pauper country, as it had to pay massive amounts of money to the 1870s, to France, and then Haiti was as of this still beset by dictators, and even foreign colonialism. Anyhow in the 1820s, tha public got angrier, and angrier, and speeches were made by Liberals, calling for the ousting of the French king, so in 1831, another revolution occurred, with the help of Jacobins, extreme left wingers, too liberal royalists. The liberal royalists imposed a new king, who accepted a small increase the franchise of the parliament created by the British in 1814. The parliament had been unimportant in many ways, and of a lower franchise than even Britain, but now stayed with a low franchise. It is felt famines conditiosn also added to the revolution, with Parisian papuers angry at their starvation. In 1848, there was another revolution ousting the king, which established a Republic, but this election saw something which shocked the socialist and liberals, who felt they had finally taken control of France for the better. In the Presidential election a peasantry still proud of Napoleon's expansions, and memory voted for the candidate of the elite, his nephew. His nephew soon went on to end democracy and create a dictatorship, which went on to follow the same imperialist policies of the French kings. With a carrying on of invading Algeria, Africa, and even a attempt to impose a puppet king on Mexico. The saying asbolute power, provokes absolute failure, again proved itself in France. As this new dynasty, prepared for an invasion of Prussia, to do with some royal affairs to do with Spain. Prussia invaded France and brutally won, masscring French men in the 100s, and surrounding Paris, causing a siege that killed 10s of thousands. The defeat saw the emperor flee, and anothe revolution. In 1870, as Prussian troops left Communes, took over the ruling of parts of the city, this was even more prole, and pleb like than any of the other revolutions. I think 1789 was led by lower class, and higher class people, and inspired by both, 1831, more by higher class people, 1848 by lower classes, but this was just led by people of lower classes, and had barely any higher class leaderships. The action by the royalist army was what was important though, they started massecring the Commune members, killing around 30,000 men women and children. They then held a election and planned to create a new state based on the British constitution, with a strong king, and equalli strong Prime minister appointed by him and parliament and also long term aristocrat or oligarch senate. This was destroyed though as the main candiadte for kinmg refused the job unless he could change Frabce's falg to what it was in 1788. This was followed by Conservatives who had won the 1870s election via crushing the left, losing the late 1870s, elections. The socialist and liberals who won, then declared Bastille Day, the national holiday, moved the capital from regal Versailles, to populous Paris, and essentially made the Revolution finally take over. In later years France helped win World war one, and was defeated by the ancien powers in World war two, but in later years became regarded as the standard bearer of left wing policies, as of the elections of socialist regimes, in the 1940s and 1980s. With for the rest of the time it being ruled by centrist liberals, and so being very succesful compared with itself before 1789. P.S people talk of the reign of terror, but the right in France comitted a mass of horrific massacres more bloody and far more pointless than the saving of millions of lives. I will list those horrible massacres in another thing, but they would astound you. From the massacres of the Cathars, to the killing of the Jacquarie, of Protestants, of slaves, of more, their deaths gargle, and their memories forgotten, while thug greedy corrupt monarchs who stole cash off famine victims, are remembered by morons, always. Well I worship the name French Revolution and shall celebrate it. Yes there are many horrible French people, just like of every nationality, There are scum in France, who are nazis, bullies, racisst snobby, etc, but I bet there were even more before the reign of terror. The great thing about the reign of terror was that it gave snobs a kick up the backside. Not that I support what happened, but that is that doooooods. And what about the more recent royalist massacres of the Communes, in 1870. Which killed as many as the reign of terror, in less time. The 1790s Reign of terror, was similar to the World War Two bombing of Dresden, whether it was right or wrong, whether it was needed or not, the far right evil regime it defeated is far worse, and we should never forget that. And never pretend that we should forget the horrific crimes by the horrifying humiliating born to be disdainful and oppressive right wing.

Crimes by the opponents of the French Revolution include millions of slaves taken to the Carribean. Plus Look at http://www.lonympics.co.uk/

massacres in Spain by Britain of thousands, and over 30000 by the Russian in Poland, and over thousands in lots of other places as I will say later. So more than the amount in the French Revolution by the left, including some kills by Paraguayan, rightists, and Carribean massacres.

Some say the French declined as of 1789.

I say no, I say in 1788, it was a faminous land, deffinately weaker than Britain, Russia, and China. And was heading to be a weaker power than Prussia, and the USA.

By 1800, part way through the revolution, it was probabaly the world's most powerful land. Look at http://www.lonympics.co.uk/

By 1815, after mass conspiracies against it, after some imperial rule, it was probabaly reduced to being second most powerful. after Britain.

Then by 1870, after a few decades of royal and imperial rule, the 1800s French empeor, had normal blood, but the 1860s emperor was a product of normal blood, and some blood of a Dutch monarch who was a bouirbon, so 1815-70 was royal led.

In this era, France as it was led by leaders opposed to the Revolution, declined to below Germany, Britain, USA, and Russia, with

France today is still in the top 5, so as a democratic Revolutionary republic has fallen no more. Despite the growth of China.

The reason the people executed the French monarchy in 1792, is as they were traitors, people go on about it too much. Surely executing them was not like executing some lord, or average person, who has no power, it was like executing Ceacescu, or Hitler, as they dictators, who took a larger percentage of state taxes to their own palace than to poverty relief in famine, and most gauling of all, they had charity balls, where they claimed to be charitable, then spent loads more than that amount from tax on their own palace in terrible famines, and wars, We must also remember that during the era of the French Revolution, right wing forces executed and massacred far more people than the Revolutionary side did. A fact rarely manetioned in history books. We must also remember that the Revolution brought great good to the people as the above list shows, which outweighed in this case any bad occuring during it.

They also asked Germany and Austria to invade France to restore their dictator powers, serfdom, and famine. There is no doubt that they did this, and that Prussia and Austria then through many channels issued threats against the people to not revolt. Essentially declaring war on the people. This fact is often forgotten delibraetely by many right wing historians to make the revolution seem resposible for the later war, when it was the royal elites of Europe who pushed to war. So the French monarchs deserved execution as much as any dictator, but as for every right wing dictator, the right showing they only care for the elite not the people, go on about that, while the left go on about the suffering of all of us, from the elite right up to us. The Brunswick Manifesto of 1792, and the Declaration of Pillnitz of 1791, were the main moves towards war. In 1791 Marie Antoniette and King Louis were found in Varennes, where they were as they were on their way to trying to flee France. After fleeing it is crtain they hoped to ally to European monarchs, and then hoped to invade France, and install dictatoral power and horrible ways on the people of France again. Even with this war though the French Revolution was good as it ended so many horrible things, that could not really have been stopped in any other way, as lets face it the war was caused by the Revolution's opponents, and the elite entrenched monachial interests had the power at the time. Some even claim the Royals did not want to ally to foreign kings. But it is known for sure that the king and queen were sending many correspondance to the Swedish, Austrian and Prussian leaders, saying the Revolution was bad, and they planned to repudiate and undo, much of the things that had already been achieved by the Revolution. The plan was to get to Montmedy, where a royalist led the local army. And then at this place call on Europe's Monarchs to oppose the revolution, with threat of a army. It is said with this key statement that in 1791 Marie's brother Leopold, the leader or emperor of Austria at the time, promissed Austrian troops to help Louis's army and so help him threaten the French people to surrender to the king. Indeed Marie sent a man so close to her some called him her lover maybe a exajeration by them, but he was sent to Vienna to get Austria to join a coalition against the revolution even in 1790, at a time when Austria was in some ways not interested in this, So you can say from this there is no doubt he would have been willing to use French troops in Montmedy to march to Paris and takeover, and so no doubt he was willing to use the Austrians and he pushed the Austrians and Prussians to threaten war there is no doubt about that. So he caused the war as did the Queen the evidence is aplenty. Indeed it is said that even in 1791, they were prepared to use this Austrian/French army against the French nation and revolutionaries. They also caused the European monarchs to declare war declarations on France, so were responsible. In 1791 it is said Louis hoped Austria would quickly beat France and impose him in charge just as Prussia had recently deposed revolutionary regimes in the Netherlands and some more places like this. It is also believed that Marie was asking the Austrian emperor even in 1791 to launch a war against Farnce's regime,. It has to be stated sometimes teh royals did say they did not want foreign inteervention, and invasion of their land, but the other evidence says they did want this, and asked for it so much, and even their less extreme m,oments were just them saying they wanted Prussia and Austria to threaten war, at a grand meeting, which is essentially a declaration of war as what were Revolutionaries supposed to do, just surrender, and if they did not she had done things before which proved to revolutionaries and emperors that she was prepared to have foreign inspired armies invading France, There is no doubt they asked these powers for helping to attack, and certainly no doubt they wanted their pressure to intimdate the French nation away from having the costitution it's people wanted. They also then via advisors, and own actions pushed Europe to war, that last statement is just for sure, but some may query that, I feel, but I feel it is ok, to say, as they asked for intervention and made the acts and the environment for war, asking Austria to help in 1791 attempts to invade France, and asking loads of European powers, for help in threatening the Revolution. There is no doubt of that, and so no real doubt that they caused the war and asked for Austria and Prussia to help invade and so invade and then they did actually invade, and so cause the war. The King and Queen caused the war and got their allies to invade France purely for themselves. Their attitude was evil, malign and greedy to deny that is crazy and wrong. Some may claim it was accidental, but it was just deliberate, and they should be seen as bad for what they did, and as bad people. They did not have good intentions, they had bad selfish and greedy intentions and were just people to be condemmed for what they did.

The royals also ran the slave trade. People go on about their execution when they let millione die, it's like some sicko evil thing I can not beleive. Every member of the 1790s French royals, supported executions of rioters in famines, and led the killings of many people, in riots like Bastille, when 10s of peasants were killed trying to oust the royal regime, by the Royals's troops. Another common thing for people to say is "marie antonette did not say lets them eat cake" as if that makes any difference. She lived in immense luxery while her population was in intense poverty. The fact is the phrase was used as early as the 1740s, by some French aristocratic elite members, and that is caertain. People who she was allied to in terms of opressing the mass of the population into feudal poverty.. And in some cases in Ancien late Century riots 1770s or 1780s, I can not remember, leaders did say something along the lines of let them eat grass. of the starving. What actually mattered was that she and her husband were the rulers of the system, they were dictators, The other things some say is well it was not the French Monarchs fault they ruled in such a bad way they were brought up to do this. Well so was anybody. The worst people can use that excuse for the worst crimes, and it is not actually anuything that can then make us see these enactors of the crimes as anything other than bad. It is cold, and horrible to look at that period, and pretend that we should say the Monarchs who had absolute power, deserve no genuine critique for the way they ruled, and the way they were traitors, This is a sign of how bad monarchy was, that the rich monarchs were not seen as people who needed to have any responsibility for what was in the society at the time. By people who oppose the Revolution and idealise these rich figures. They are idealised by these people purely as they were wealthy, and the people who oppose the Revolution usually idealise these monarchial figures, but do not care for the people below in any actual sense. Surely if you say it was their upbringing anybody can use that excuse. Surely of all the people, it was my upbringing is least actually a acceptable excuse for a absolute all powerful monarch. Surely to pretend otherwise leads to no scope for criticisim, of the French Royals, Surely that is a no morals society which would allow the French royals to have done anything what so ever, and not see any critisism in history. While figures from Gandhi, to Martin Luther King are critiqued by the same people in far less nice ways, with people not giving them a insane benefit of the doubt that stretches credulity in amazing ways, When no sane person can pretend that these royals were good. Look what they did, they caused a war purely so THEY like some master race could be put back on throne, and so liberalism, equality and freedom could be crushed. So causing a war, of many deaths. A sign of how evil they were was that even this war they caused did not cause as many dethas as the amount of lives the French Revolution saved. The French Monarchist supporters are just like Nazis, or Nazi Sympathisers, who oppose equality, liberty and fraternity, and support a nazi master race philosophy. And surely in that case it is amazing that the same people who take such a sympatheitc view of the royals, often have such scary snide, and terrifying views, of left wingers, people they dissagree with, and people they deem to be unfashionable and poor. So they do the Ancien thing of caring about the super powerful even when they have never met them, but not a jot about inoffensive people who have comitted no harm v them, even holding terrifying homophobic, racist, bullying, sexist, or nasty vierws. So that is that, the Revolution was great, a bit bad, but the famines were worse, and so it was a advance. So every time you go on holiday to France, you can remember it would have been a worse place without the Revolution, and the Eiffel Tower, France's most key architectual item was built to commemorate it.
