The French Revolution resulted from both short-term effects (a political crisis) and longer-term
effects (social tensions). There were also influences and impacts from the American Revolution (e.g.
cost of the assistance to the Americans and the success of the American Revolutionary ideals). For

deeply. You may use the following prompt OR come up with your OWN UNIQUE THESIS, so long as
you analyze at least 2 primary sources connected with the French Revolution.
