Question

Which actions taken by the French people were justified to change the status quo? Were there any causes or effects that justified the use of this action?

Answer 1

Answer:

The French were justified in many of their actions because the ancient regime rule had shown to be very ineffective and even careless about the plight of the common people.

Explanation:

This is why the French Revolution was a Revolution. Gradual reformist change was practically impossible and the people were forced to act in more or less violent ways to enact change.

However, it is also true that the revolutionaries committed many excesses, lost sight of what they were doing, and ended up failing to a great degree because the final result of the Revolution was the ascent of power of Napoleon as emperor of the French.
