C. It persuaded France and Spain to become allies. The Battle of Saratoga in 1777 is considered a turning point in the American Revolutionary War. Before the battle, the continental army rarely engaged in open battles with the British, instead using guerrilla tactics and secret ambushes in skirmish fights in the beginning of the war. The continental army needed foreign aid if it wanted to win the war against the much more professionally organized British army. France and Spain were rivals with Britain, but needed proof that the colonists may take on the British army in an open battle if it wanted to join the war on the colonists' side. The continental army had the opportunity to do so at the Battle of Saratoga in upstate New York, and successfully drove back British forces from Canada in open combat, allowing the French and Spanish to join the war against Britain.

How did the french revolution bring reform and terror?
cestrela7 [59]

Reform: During the French Revolution, the National Assembly was able to set some new standards or reforms, which they thought would better the whole situation. Amongst these reforms we have a balance of powers, a declaration which stated that all men were equal under the law; just because you were noble-born did not mean you had privileges; no emperors or dictators were able to rule; they would not return to the "Ancien Regime"; and finally, the monarchic rule would end.

Terror: After the death of Louis XVI in 1793, the Reign of Terror began. The first to be affected by this was Marie Antoinette who had been imprisoned with her children. The guillotine, the new instrument for democratic justice, was put to work. Public executions were thought of as educational. Women were encouraged to sit and knit during trials and executions. Across France 30,000 people were killed for very unnecessary things such as saying something critical of the revolutionary government. The leader during this time was Robespierre. He was the leader of Public Safety, the executive committee of the National Convention, and the most powerful man on France. But after some time, people believed that the Terror must be stopped. Even his supporters, the Jacobins believed that it was time to stop the Terror. Many conventions were held in order to stop the Terror. Danton was the one leading this, but later was threatened to death and prohibited from defending himself.

dmitriy555 [2]
<span>Enlightened absolutism is a system in which rulers tried to govern by Enlightenment principles while maintaining complete royal power. These Enlightenment principles include have equality, the freedom of speech, religion, press, and to own property.
