Compare And Contrast The American Revolution Vs French Revolution

The American Revolution is different from the French Revolution in many ways. The American Revolution was different and had different ways of doing things then the French Revolution. “On July 4 , 1776, the Second Continental Congress approved a Declaration of Independence written by Thomas Jefferson”(321). What the quote is saying is that the American Revolution was about fighting for independence and how a lot of places wanted independence from somewhere or peace treaties. The French Revolution was very different from the American Revolution from how they handled everything and with what was going on. “During the course of the Reign Of Terror, close to 40,000 people were killed” (339). This quote tells me that the French Revolution was different
from the American Revolution because during the French Revolution the Reign Of Terror killed a lot of people for no reason and how violent and crazy it was and to even have a execution list during the Reign Of Terror. The French Revolution and American Revolution are alike in some ways but in other ways they are very different. “After the Seven Years’ War, British leaders wanted to get new revenues from the colonies. These revenues would be used to cover war costs, as well as to pay for the expenses of maintaining an army to defend the colonies” (321). I like this quote because it says that the American Revolution was and can be violent too just like the French Revolution and that they both fought a lot. It also shows that the American Revolution wasn’t as violent and fought for independence and for new things and new changes the French Revolution was different and was more complex and violent and just solved long range problems.
