What were the causes and consequences of the French revolution? Once in the place of a French citizen, whom and why would you support during the key events of 1848-1852?
The cause of the revolution was the government’s departure from the liberal course. Louis Philippe focused more and more on strengthening his power in the country. The reason for the beginning of the revolution was the cancellation of the banquet of the protesters in Paris. Thus, during the February Revolution, Louis Philippe was dethroned. The establishment of the Second Republic took place, headed by Napoleon 3. If at that time I was a citizen of France, I most likely supported Napoleon 3, since, if you remember, the initial years of his reign were quite progressive and positive for the country.
