So in the New World, there’s a new country, with a new Constitution and a new central government.  This had never happened before, it was an astounding thing in world history, and that fact was not lost on the people of the Old World.  People all over Europe were watching what happened in America with great interest.  And when the United States was able to actually throw off the British government, and then were also able to come together and successfully create a new form of government, the people of Europe were impressed, and also inspired to begin to think about creating new forms of government for themselves. And one of the countries that was the most eager to think about new forms of government was France.  But France was a very, very different place than the United States, and its process of altering and abolishing the old form of government and instituting new government was also very different.  Website:  shortwalkthroughhistory.comemail:  [email protected]
