taking sides


            Thesis: The French revolution was worth its human costs because it eliminated serfdom and absolutism and made France into its present democratic state as well as transformed the political and social systems of the world.
             The French revolution was one of the most atrocious historical events ever to take place. Through the use of the guillotine thousands upon thousands of innocent people were killed. Thus, many historians would say that the French revolution was not worth its human costs because in the end an authoritative regime of Napoleon came to power. But these historians make a big mistake. The French revolution was worth its human costs because it eliminated serfdom and absolutism and made France into its present democratic state as well as transformed the political and social systems of the world. .
             To see the real effect of the French Revolution we have to see the world before the revolution. A leading cause of social stress in France during the Revolution was its large population. At the beginning of the eighteenth century, France had 20 million people living within its borders. Over the course of the century, that number increased by 8 to 10 million. .
             Also the eighteen-century saw the intrusion of capitalism into everyday life. Thanks to a large expansion of overseas trade and domestic trade development that lead to capitalism. The money economy also experienced continued growth. These incursions of capitalism began drawing everyone into some form of regional and even international exchange.
