French
revolution changes a lot of French systems.
I investigated
many information of French revolution, and I could understand French
Revolution well and the revolution lead French to right way. Because People

The revolution
which began in France in 1789 with the storming of the Bastille’ on 14th July, when the
people of Paris attacked and took control of the Bastille prison.
Four years
later, the French king and queen, Louis16 and Marie Antoinette were killed by
having their heads cut off by the guillotine. Many other people of high rank
were also killed and France became a republic (=a country without king or
queen).During the Revolution, the people demanded ‘Liberty, Equality, and
Fraternity’, and the events and ideas of the revolution had an important
influence on European history.
Napoleon also
changed the way that France was organized, and established a new system of
laws, called the “Napoleon Code” on which modern French law is based.
