The French Revolution led to the end of the monarchy and establishment of a republic in France. Prior to the revolution, French society was divided into estates with the clergy and nobility making up the first and second estates. The third estate comprised mostly poor peasants and laborers who faced economic hardship and subsistence crisis. Inspired by Enlightenment ideas, the middle class and third estate demanded greater political rights and representation. This led to the storming of the Bastille and abolition of feudalism. A constitutional monarchy was established in 1791 but eventually gave way to a republic after the overthrow of the monarchy in 1792 during the Reign of Terror led by Robespierre.

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

laws such as the protection of private property and a uniform system of
weights and measures.

BATTLE OF WATERLOO
The Battle of Waterloo, which took place in Belgium on June 18, 1815, marked the final defeat
of French military leader and emperor Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821), who conquered much
of continental Europe in the early 19th century. Napoleon rose through the ranks of the French
army during the French Revolution (1789-1799), seized control of the French government in
1799 and became emperor in 1804. Through a series of wars, he expanded his empire across
western and central Europe. However, a disastrous invasion of Russia in 1812, coupled with
other defeats, led to his abdication and exile in 1814. He returned to France in 1815 and briefly
resumed power. The Battle of Waterloo, in which Napoleon’s forces were defeated by the British
and Prussians, signalled the end of his reign and the end of France’s domination in Europe. After
Waterloo, Napoleon abdicated and later died in exile.

37. Summary
The ideas of liberty & democratic rights were the most
important legacy of the French Revolution.
These ideas spread from France to the rest of Europe during the
nineteenth century, where feudal systems were abolished.
Even these ideas influenced people in
the colonised India. Tipu Sultan and
Rammohan Roy were influenced by the
ideas coming from revolutionary France.
KICKSTARTER
38. After Napoleon's domination of Europe from around 1800 to 1815, the
rulers of Europe wanted to insure that no one would ever be able to
come so close to taking over all of Europe again. To this end, the
diplomats from all of the Great Powers met at the Congress of Vienna to
negotiate from 1814 to 1815. There they reorganized European
boundaries in hopes of creating a stable Europe where coalitions of
nations could always ally to defeat one nation that got out of hand.
The rulers after Napoleon were dedicated to stopping revolution (like
the French Revolution in their own countries. Louis XVIII, whose brother
Louis XVI had been executed during the French Revolution, certainly
didn't want another revolution in France.
After Napoleon, a period of Reactionary governments swept Europe.
Having swung so far one way during the French Revolution and
Napoleon's rule, the historical pendulum now swung back the other way,
as rulers tried to prevent the "excesses" of the French Revolution from
happening again. Fear among the traditional rulers was not without basis,
either. Revolution was brewing throughout Europe.

42. SHORT ANSWER TYPE QUESTIONS:
Q.1. Why were political clubs formed?
Ans.
Large sections of the population were convinced that the revolution had to be carried
further, as the Constitution of 1791 gave political rights only to the richer section of society.
Political clubs were formed by people who wished to discuss government policies and plan
their own forms of action. The most successful of these clubs was that of Jacobins, which
got its name from the former convent of St Jacob in Paris.
Women started their own political clubs in order to discuss and voice their interests. About
sixty women’s club came up in different French cities. The Society of Revolutionary and
Republican Women was most popular. One of their main demands was that women enjoy
the same political rights as men.
Q.2. What was the subsistence crisis? Why did it occur in France during the Old Regime?
Ans.
1- The population of France was on the rise. It rose from 23 million in 1715 to 28 million in
1789.This led to increase in the demand for food grains.
2-The production of food grains could not keep pace with the demand and the price of
bread which was the staple diet of the majority Rose rapidly.
3- The wages also did not keep pace with the rise in prices. The gap between the Rich and
the poor widened. This led to the subsistence crisis.

43. Q.3. Describe how the new political system of constitutional monarchy worked in France.
Ans.

however, had the right to vote.
2. Only men above 25 years of age who paid taxes equal to at least 3 days of a labourer’s
wage were given the status of active citizens, that is, they were entitled to vote.
