According to Wiley, the French revolution was “a popular rebellion that succeeded in overthrowing the rule of King Charles X and his ministers. The revolt was prompted by the government’s rejection of legitimate election results and its suspension of the constitution.” The purpose of this revolution was to overthrow the king of France, and the revolution succeeded, and King Charles X was overthrown, along with all his ministers. So what happened in France during the Revolution of 1840? According to Wikipedia, “The 1830 Revolution marked a shift from one constitutional monarchy, under the restored House of Bourbon, to another, the July Monarchy; the transition of power from the House of Bourbon to its cadet branch, the House of OrlĂ©ans; and the replacement of the principle of hereditary right by that of popular sovereignty.“
Were the Revolutions of 1848 successful or unsuccessful? These Revolutions were a series of republican revolts against European monarchies. These revolts began in Sicily, and eventually spread to France, Germany, Italy, and the Austrian Empire. All of these revolts ended in massive failure, and were followed by widespread disillusionment among people called liberals.
