Answer:
Explanation:
Massacre: an indiscriminate and brutal slaughter of people.
“an indiscriminate and brutal slaughter of many people” Many is of course “A large quantity”. So there we have it, certainly more than a couple but if it gets to be say 100,000, which is definitely a large number, I suspect that might be encroaching into the realms of genocide.
OK so if you happen upon a car crash and there are bodies spread over the scene, 2 from each of the 2 cars, then you would immediately spot, just by looking there were 4 people involved, but if it was a pair of coaches each with 52 passengers and they were all spread around the scene you wouldn’t be able to put a number to it by just sweeping your eyes across the mess, perhaps then it is getting to be a massacre. Could that be a useful definition? If the number slaughtered is more than you can estimate merely with a look? I also think it needs to be within a definable area, like a football field, or a stadium or perhaps a town. If it involved a whole region of a country then it becomes Genocide, maybe.
Could it be then The indiscriminate and brutal slaughter of more people within a definable area than you can estimate readily with a sweep of your eyes.
Just a suggestion, so go gently on me ………….
Both the American Revolution and French Revolution were the products of Enlightenment ideals that emphasized the idea of natural rights and equality. With such an ideological basis, it becomes clear when one sets out to compare the French Revolution and American Revolution that people felt the need to be free from oppressive or tyrannical rule of absolute monarchs and have the ability to live independent from such forces. The leadership in both countries at the time of their revolutions was certainly repressive, especially in terms of taxation. Both areas suffered social and economic hardships that led to the realization that something must be done to topple the hierarchy and put power back into the hands of the people.
While there are several similarities in these revolutions, there are also a few key differences. This comparison essay on the French and American Revolutions seeks to explore the parallels as well as the divisions that are present in both the American Revolution and the French Revolution. The political climate in France during its revolution was quite different than that in America simply because there was not a large war that had just ended in America (while in France the Seven Years War had nearly devastated the French monarchy’s coffers). Furthermore, although the lower and middle classes were generally the majority of the rebelling populace, there was far more upper class support for the revolution in France versus the participation of loyalists in America.
