THE FRENCH REVOLUTION 1789-1799 - Darien Public Schools

QUESTIONS TO PONDER
and perhaps see on a test… test
Robespierre was a product of the
enlightenment, yet became as harsh
as any absolutist King (maybe
harsher). Why do some people who
fight for new ideas (like Calvin in
Geneva) become so unwilling to accept
any deviation from the new rules?
Could Louis XVI have avoided his fate
and remained as King of France?
Should the nobles have just agreed to
pay the Tax?
