The empire was then declared war on by Britain, Russia, Prussia, Sweden, and Austria. Quickly putting an army together of untrained and horribly prepared soldiers he faced the other European nations in Leipzig, a city in Germany. In 1814 Napoleon was denied the access to keep fighting and surrendered. Then he was exiled to Elba and was thought to never be a threat again. However when he heard of New king Louis XVIII struggling for power, Napoleon escaped Elba and returned to be welcomed again by France.
Ten’s of thousands killed, and spies all over the place. Listening to all that you say. The king and queen killed, and massive debts racked up because of wars. This all happened in the span of 21 years. And people argue that the French revolution had not lived up to it’s standard.
As slave-owning and slave trading were accepted routines of colonial life, slavery would play a central part in the language of the revolution. The perseverance of the legalized institution of slavery until 1865 is unquestionably the most controversial aspect of all American history. The hypocrisy of the new republic dominated the spotlight of the global stage. The US cultivated and advocated philosophy of the Enlightenment while continuing to legitimize the evil of slavery amongst countless innocent souls. As the European lands were building powerful states on the foundations of revolutionary ideas, and dismantling the whole system, the United States forged a strong central government to deal with the political and social issues that divided the American republic.
General Juan Alvarez launched a coup and after capturing the capital named himself president and made Juárez the Minister of Justice. He passed laws limiting the church’s power and in 1857 he became Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. That same year a new constitution was passed.

Juárez was arrested and when he was released from prison he went to Guanajuato, made himself president and declared war.
Consequently, he locked all the sea-ports of Europe as well as English goods. To make matters worse, he punished with fights all the countries which would not accept his system. At this moment, Napoleon´s oppression turned society against him. So, his determinations began to fail (Harding, 2012). Conclusion The main conclusion to be drawn for this paper is that the French Revolution was characterized mainly by war, famine and depression, which were caused by the failure of King Louis XVI at managing the finance of the notion properly.
After a three year peace treaty with Britain he waged war on them once again. Very soon after that he waged war on Russia and Austria as well. Napoleon was crushed in a naval battle against England.

Citizens began to revolt and in the Han dynasty in 220 C.E., the emperor was rebelled against among middle and lower class peasants and was eventually disposed of. After the emperor was overthrown, the empire divided into three separate kingdoms creating more political weakness and confusion for several decades before the absolute fall of the Han dynasty. In Rome, the subject was more focused on how the emperors would rule, and how much power they were given. The question of how they would be appointed, and how much power they would have in governing the region, caused political unrest. This caused a line of weak rulers, constantly battling in hunger for power.
The enlightenment resulted in the idea of using a democracy to govern, the power of the government from the people, natural rights, freedoms, equality and individuality, all aspects that the French people were fighting for.

He was born into and lived during the maelstrom of post-revolutionary France. At his birth, the Directory ruled France after the Reign of Terror imposed my Robespierre, but after many years and after multiple leaders and leaderships, Napoleon II was established as emperor. During this time France was undergoing a major political change accompanied by industrialization. Industrialization brought new classes of individuals, including urban wage earners and expanded numbers of bourgeoisie, as well as multiple structural changes such as the factory, bureaucracy, and open markets. During these changes, Comte’s career began, enjoyed a promising beginning, and then faded to embarrassment and ridicule (Beeghley, Powers and Turner p 20) Auguste Comte began and finished his series of Course of Positive Philosophy (1830-1842).
