Question

How did the American Revolution cause the French Revolution?

Answer 1

Answer:Since the French decided to join the American side as an ally during the American Revolutionary War, they send a bunch of resources, man power(aka soldiers) and more to help their side (they also send Lafayette). Due to all of this, the Americans failed to pay back the debt to France in a short period of time(because their country just started and they need to organize everything), causing French to need to raise the taxes on the common people in their land, making life hard (because they need to feed mouths and their wages aren’t high) and forcing them to start a revolution (poor king that helped the Americans, he got his head chopped up for it).

There are more reasons but this is all I can think of for now.

Answer 2

Answer: The revolution in America was the trigger for many other movements.

Explanation:

First and foremost, the French Revolution was probably the most influential movement in history. The people in the United States fought for independence, while the French fought against autocratic rule. Both movements have in their roots an effort to achieve freedom. The colonists in North America sought to secede from Britain's power, an external entity. In contrast, the French sought within their borders to reach a revolutionary path and free themselves from the rulers' arbitrariness. Both revolutions ultimately, therefore, had the same goal. The American or French Revolution will encourage the people of South America to fight against the Spanish occupation.
