explain the legacy of french revolution in five points.

·  The French Revolution bore a rich legacy for the peoples of the world during the 19th and 20th centuries because it was the first national movement that adopted the ideals of “liberty, equality and fraternity” which became the basic tenets of democracy for every nation in the 19th and the 20th century. 

·  The Revolution espoused the cause of the masses, sought to abolish the idea of divine right, feudal privileges, slavery and censorship, and upheld merit as the basis for social up gradation.

·  These tenets are important even in the contemporary world for their emphasis on equality and a world free from prejudice.

·  Feudal systems and colonisation were abolished in the French revolution.

·  Indian leaders were deeply influenced by the ideas that the French Revolution propagated against the monarchy and its absolutism.
