The french revolution destroyed age-old cultural, institutional, and social structures in France and beyond.It tried to recreate everything in a human society. It has shaped the very foundation of Europe.The goal in this introductory presentation is to show why the Ancien régime became ancient as well as examining cases in which achievement failed to match ambition and how we are still living with its legacy and why the french revolution mattered.
