The French Revolution lasted 10 years from 1789 to 1799 and saw the people of France remove the monarchy from power and take control of the government. A key moment was when revolutionaries stormed the Bastille prison in 1789. The period was marked by the Reign of Terror led by Robespierre, who wanted to eliminate any opposition to the revolution. During this time, thousands of people were executed by guillotine, including Queen Marie Antoinette and many of Robespierre's political rivals. Napoleon eventually overthrew the revolutionary government in 1799 and established himself as the new leader of France.

Franco was a dictator in Spain from 1939 to 1975 who came to power through a military coup. He revolutionized Spain and many Spaniards left for Germany in search of a constitutional government. There was a civil war from 1936 to 1939 between those who wanted a dictatorship and those who did not, which was won by the anti-dictatorship side.

French revolution and napoleon review
The French Revolution began in 1789 due to growing discontent with the monarchy and unequal system of taxation. King Louis XVI was indecisive as the revolution began. Enlightenment ideas influenced calls for change, and Marie Antoinette was out of touch with the public. Napoleon later rose to power in a coup d'etat and crowned himself emperor, though he was finally defeated at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815.
Nazi timeline
Under the Weimar Republic, Germany's economy struggled after foreign investors withdrew support, sending the country into trouble. Unemployment rose to over 3 million and nationalism increased as the people blamed outsiders. In the 1930s, the Nazi party gained popularity by promising to restore Germany's power and prosperity. After Hindenburg appointed Hitler as Chancellor in 1933, the Nazi party became the sole party and Hitler consolidated power. The German people supported these moves as they wanted a strong leader to improve their situation and make Germany powerful again through military and territorial expansion in the late 1930s.

2) To address the debt crisis, King Louis called the Estates General meeting in 1789 but negotiations failed to raise taxes, leading to dramatic events like the Tennis Court Oath and Storming of the Bastille.
3) The Revolution established several new governments and produced influential documents like the Declaration of the Rights of Man promoting equality, liberty, and limiting the power of hereditary rulers.
CC-The-French-Revolution-CCWH-29.pdf
The French Revolution was more revolutionary than the American Revolution and had long-lasting effects on history. It began due to financial problems and widespread hunger in France under the Ancien Régime system. The revolution took a radical turn as the monarchy was abolished and a republican system was formed, leading to increased violence including the execution of King Louis XVI. While the goals of liberty and equality were promoted, the revolution failed to protect these rights in practice.

The document summarizes three instances of civil resistance against military coups:
In Germany in 1921, a general strike and civil servants' refusal to cooperate led to the failure of the Kapp Putsch within four days. In France in 1961, President de Gaulle appealed on television for civil disobedience against the Generals' coup in Algeria, which soon collapsed as soldiers refused orders. In Spain in 1981, King Juan Carlos opposed the coup publicly, and the plotters were arrested as democracy was reinforced.Similar to FCE Reading and Use of English - part 1 (20)

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
