Answer:
The Age of Absolutism refers to period in French history where the Monarch has Absolute power over the country and all it's resources.
Explanation:
An example is that of Napoleon Bonaparte or Louis the 16th. As absolute Monarchy, there were increases in taxation to not only help build a powerful army but also to fund the lavish lifestyles of these kings.
A king would also influence the local religion and social customs that would sometimes out them in odds with other religiously motivated monarchs in Europe.
As tensions grew and the government expenditure grew even larger, a war and territorial gain would be seen as the best way to not only increase power but eventually generate more revenue.
This was in stark contrast to smaller countries in Europe, especially modern-day Belgium or Germany where the power of the King was gradually decreasing.
They could neither build an army as big as France's and did not have the will to do so.
Hence, during this time, the French were able to annex millions of acres of new land and build the largest territorial Empire in Europe.

Answer:
Anti-revolutionary uprisings, the presence of enemy aries on French soil, and economic problems led to a sense of national emergency. As a result, the Assembly then appointed the Committee of Public Safety led by Maximilien Robespierre. Thus the Reign of Terror began. The aim of the movement was to impose revolutionary principles by force, leading to the execution of more that 40,000 people. Also, the principle of conscription was introduced, and it proved successful against many enemies, and even helped them gain some land in the Austrian Netherlands. The Reign of Terror Ended when Robespierre was ousted and executed by the guillotine. I think the Reign of Terror went on for so long because it held promise in the eyes of the peasants and revolutionaries. Many hated royals were executed, as well as those who did not support the revolution. This just fueled the fire that drove the Committee, and they continued their ways until the leader was overthrown. It also lasted for so long because they were continuously growing in number, so anyone who stood against them would be outnumbered and executed as a result.
