I say this because when the french revolution occurred it mainly involved the monarchs and it was short. The peoples of France were very violent but the violence was mainly towards the monarchs of France. After they removed the monarchs they quickly established a form of democracy.
There is no way that the French Revolution was peaceful and short. The French Revolution became violent after the execution of King Louis XIV, later brining the start of the reign of terror. A time where there were mass executions of people not accepting and supporting the revolution.
