<h3>More than anything else, however, it was racial inequality that exposed American democracy’s limits. Over several decades, state governments had lowered their property requirements so poorer men could vote. But as northern states ended slavery, whites worried that free black men could also go to the polls in large numbers. In response, they adopted new laws that made racial discrimination the basis of American democracy.</h3>
<h3>At the time of the Revolution, only two states explicitly limited black voting rights. By 1839, almost all states did. (The four exceptions were all in New England, where the Democratic Party was weakest.) For example, New York’s 1821 state constitution enfranchised nearly all white male taxpayers but only the richest black men. In 1838, a similar constitution in Pennsylvania prohibited black voting completely.</h3>

The correct answer is Napoleon Bonaparte and Abbe Sieyes overthrew the current Directory and replaced it with a new government: a three-person Consulate
In 1789, to solve the serious deficit in public accounts, the Minister of Finance, Jacques Necker, proposed that the clergy and the nobility should start paying taxes. The idea was rejected. Shortly afterwards, however, with the worsening of the crisis, Louis XVI would call the so-called General States for the first time in almost 200 years to discuss solutions. In this series of meetings, each state had a vote on each matter discussed. As their interests were quite similar, clergy and nobility tended to vote together, invariably winning all votes. On the opening day of the General States of 1789, however, the third state asked that the counting of votes be made by each individual deputy. After a month of stalemate on the issue, he would retire to a separate room, proclaiming himself on July 9 as the National Constituent Assembly. Unable to dissolve the independent meeting of the third state, the king ordered the other two states to join him. In the meantime, however, he called on the army to smother what he saw as sedition.
When word of Louis XVI's betrayal spread, much of the population revolted. On July 14, a crowd invaded the government's arsenals and seized about 30,000 muskets, then headed for the Bastille, an old fortress where the government imprisoned opponents, and took it after a few hours of combat. Although it was practically deactivated at the time, it was one of the greatest symbols of absolutism, and its fall is usually treated with the ground zero of the French Revolution.
<span>Battle of the Marne; the Belgian coast to the border of Switzerland.
Germany had invaded France with the objective of beating France quickly and then turning to attack Russia. However, the French and British attack caused Germany to retreat and began the digging in which would become the Western Front. Trench warfare created a stalemate in the war with years of the battle lines moving little between Germany and the French and British alliance. </span>

<u>Atlantic revolutions inspire changes in the rest of the world by following activities;</u>
- The Atlantic Revolution happened in European and American countries including the Latin American countries.
- The revolutions spread education that challenged the norms, that included teachings which encouraged the overthrow of kings and churches to spread liberalism.
- Furthermore, they encouraged Enlightenment by teaching equality among all men and the need for justice that recognized equality.
- This movement showed that changes can still be instigated by the new government instead of relying on old leadership out of fear of change.
- The revolution set precedence for revolutionary mentalities that still exists to the present day.
