European Revolution

The European Revolution generally refers to a series of political and social upheavals across Europe, particularly between the late 18th and early 19th centuries. This period saw movements aimed at challenging monarchies and traditional power structures, influenced by Enlightenment ideas of liberty, equality, and fraternity. Key events include the French Revolution (1789) and the 1848 Revolutions, which sought democratic reforms, national independence, and workers' rights. These revolutions inspired widespread change, leading to the decline of feudalism, the rise of nationalism, and the establishment of modern states and political ideologies that shaped Europe’s future.
