How did the other royal families of europe feel about the french revolution

History
1 answer:
Maslowich2 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

It’s often thought that the other sovereigns of Europe regarded the toppling of Louis XVI in 1791 and his execution two years later as an affront to established order, and a danger to their own safety. In fact this is inaccurate. To see why, you need to keep in mind that Europe for most of its history basically worked like New York in the Godfather trilogy—a bunch of rival families who made a big show of being civilized and honorable, but who were at the end of the day utterly bloodthirsty, calculating and ruthlessly pragmatic. Violence, even against a king, was not condemned in the least; or rather, it was on the surface, while beneath, everyone set about figuring out how it could be turned to his advantage. The French Revolution, from an external point of view, was seen mainly as a weakening of the French nation, and as a consequence it presented lots of potential opportunity.

"Every quiet method for peace hath been ineffectual. Our prayers have been rejected with disdain; and only tended to convince us
ohaa [14]

Answer:

In the excerpt, Thomas Paine is pointing out at the fact that peaceful means have been ineffective, or are likely to be ineffective, in convincing the British King, to grant the American colonies independence.

He is using a metaphor to illustrate what would happen if the American leaders continued to ask for independence through peaceful ways: the King would practically become flattered, instead of convinced, and double down on repression.

For this reason, Thomas Paine is, in a elegant way, advocating for the use of force in order to obtain the goal: independence.
