Description

The French Revolution was a period of political and societal change in France which began with the Estates General of 1789—representing the clergy, nobility and commons—and ended with the Coup of 18 Brumaire on 9 November 1799. Many of the revolution's ideas are considered fundamental principles of liberal democracy, and its values remain central to modern French political discourse.
