The document discusses the political situation in France in 1792-1793 during the French Revolution. It describes how the Paris Commune called for a national convention and how King Louis XVI's life was in danger. The king was eventually executed in early 1793, leading to new enemies of the revolution. Pressure from the Commune led the convention to adopt more radical measures. The king's execution also created new enemies for the revolution from outside France.

Wars of Religion
The Wars of Religion in France from 1560-1648 and the Thirty Years War from 1618-1648 were both devastating religious conflicts that weakened the power of royal authority in Europe and left the continent divided. The Wars of Religion in France established the Bourbon dynasty and granted Huguenots limited religious rights through the Edict of Nantes. The Thirty Years War ended with the Peace of Westphalia, which established principles of state sovereignty and religious tolerance while curtailing Habsburg power in the Holy Roman Empire. Both conflicts caused widespread death, economic ruin, and political fragmentation across Europe.
Weimar Republic
The Weimar Republic struggled after World War 1 and the harsh Treaty of Versailles. Hyperinflation in 1923 devastated the German economy and middle class. The Great Depression in 1929 led to high unemployment and political instability. Right-wing nationalist groups like the Nazis gained support. Adolf Hitler was appointed Chancellor in 1933 and quickly consolidated power, declaring himself Fuhrer after Hindenburg's death.
National assembly decisions
The National Assembly made several important decisions that changed the balance of power in France:
1. They declared the Rights of Man, establishing equality and freedoms of speech and religion but excluding women. This benefited the lower classes.
2. The Assembly seized land from the Catholic Church and made it a state institution rather than politically independent, gaining wealth while reducing the Church's power.
3. A limited constitutional monarchy was created to curb the King's authority and empower the Legislative Assembly.
4. War with Austria and Prussia ended badly for France and led to chaos, causing the Assembly to depose Louis XVI and form the radical National Convention to rule.
French Revolution
The French Revolution overthrew the Estates system of the ancient regime, establishing a constitutional monarchy but eventually becoming a republic led by Maximilien Robespierre. Financial distress from war debts and poor harvests led to unrest among the Third Estate, who stormed the Bastille and established the National Assembly. The Assembly abolished feudalism and established civil liberties and rights of man, though the monarchy was eventually overthrown and Louis XVI was executed during the Reign of Terror led by Robespierre. The Revolution transformed France from an absolute monarchy to a republic and influenced other revolutions around the world.
Battle of Grunwald_patryk_szlęk
The Battle of Grunwald was fought on July 15, 1410 between the alliance of Poland and Lithuania against the Teutonic Knights. The Teutonic Knights, led by Grand Master Ulrich von Jungingen, were decisively defeated, with most of their leadership killed or taken prisoner. Though the Knights withstood a siege at their fortress of Marienburg, they never recovered their former power. The battle marked the rise of the Polish-Lithuanian union as the dominant power in Eastern Europe at the expense of the Teutonic Order.
Metternich
Metternich's downfall was caused by three key events: 1) The Greek War of Independence (1821-1829) awakened pro-freedom sentiments in Europe and weakened Metternich's stance against supporting the Greek rebels; 2) The Revolutions of 1830 spread from France to other countries and led to constitutional changes curbing absolute rulers; 3) The Revolutions of 1848 erupted across Europe as democratic and nationalist ideas overthrew existing regimes, culminating in Metternich's resignation in the face of rebellion in Austria and the end of his era of conservatism.
Weimar republic
The document summarizes key events in Germany from the end of World War 1 until the Nazis gained control in 1933-1934.

The document summarizes key events of the French Revolution including the "Great Fear" peasant uprising, the storming of the Bastille prison in Paris, nobles fleeing the country, a women's march on Versailles, government reforms establishing departments and elections, the Declaration of Rights of Man, the limited constitutional monarchy established in 1791, foreign countries calling for war with France, and the monarchy being ended.

World War I began in 1914 between the Allied powers of Britain, France, Russia, and later the United States against the Central Powers of Germany and Austria-Hungary. The war was initially fought on the Western Front in trenches across northern France and Belgium, until the United States entered the war in 1917 after Germany began unrestricted submarine warfare and tried to enlist Mexico as an ally against America.

The french revolution 1789
The French Revolution began in 1789 and overthrew the French monarchy and feudal system. Under the Old Regime, French society was divided into three estates, with the First Estate (clergy) and Second Estate (nobility) enjoying special privileges like tax exemptions, while the Third Estate (commoners) bore the tax burden. Economic troubles and Enlightenment ideas led to unrest and the storming of the Bastille prison. The National Assembly abolished feudalism and established a constitutional monarchy, but internal and external conflicts led to the establishment of the First French Republic in 1792 and the execution of King Louis XVI the following year. The Reign of Terror that followed saw tens of thousands executed before being
