"I pray for people to find compassion and to learn from the past." == Exactly! History repeats only if we don't learn from the past mistakes. Unfortunately, there are so many who don't. They'd be driven by the emotion of the moment and take an action that doesn't make sense when they look it back in the future as a part of the history. As a result, we'll all have to be dragged into it whether we like it or not.
(cont.) So to argue that the French Revolution was a bad idea from the start would seem difficult for any patriotic American. To argue that it went poorly is easier, but consider: 1) We did not have to overthrow a government entirely; our Revolution was a secession; we didn't have to decide what to do with George III; 2) we were separated from Europe by a big ol' ocean and the powers that ended up at war with France were not arrayed against us due to that and also their enmities towards Britain.
Thank you so much. Because of you, I'm getting the point of this revolution. There are lots of stuff in books, but you tell us the main points. EXAM, HERE I COME~
damn, only if this was what school would be like, a vid on the computer that u can pause and take notes on, then take a test instead of spending days on the same subject
Except that without a revolution France would have remained subject to an autocratic monarchy; Louis XVI seems like a sympathetic victim because he was sort of dull and bungling, but he was a tyrant still. This revolution was also informed and inspired by the same Enlightenment ideas as the American revolution. The Declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen bares a striking resemblance to the Declaration of Independence and Bill of Rights. (cont)
haha, he was totally building the suspense on the name of the artillery captain. And when he gave the answer... I should've known that. too bad they didn't teach it at my school.
And finally the excesses of the Jacobins and the Committee for Public Safety can only be understood in the context of that war. France could not win it without quickly suppressing internal counter-revolutionary factions and dragooning everyone into line behind the Revolutionary cause. The French Revolution was likely a necessary step in the process of getting rid of monarchical absolutism and (not mentioned much) direct Church control of politics in Europe. Also it gave them the metric system.
"let me write this in a bloody color" haha. Hope this isn't video isn't for preparing us for history to repeat itself. Well, revolution is fine, but hopefully not quite this bloody.
@CaptainFluffy6644 No, most revolutions did not have a bloody and chaotic period where revolutionary factions turned on each other en masse. Most revolutions did not have "Reigns of Terrors." Also, most revolutions didn't result in as radical political and social(Cultural) upheaval.
imagine if Khan made PDF samples of hi's littly precious scribbles. That I would value and keep for long.
A. Delivionos yesssssss

People aren't starving yet. They could tolerate tyranny, but the moment there was no grain, the royalty and nobles were out in less than a year.

fantastic work, sir. I only wish to emulate what you are doing for society.
You should start a tutoring company or something.

I love this series on the french revolution. I really hope that you'll also make ww1 & Bolshevik revolution series in the future.
One must not talk about the Bolshevik Revolution and the Concentration Camps of Communist Russia....
Through out history the strong always win and winner takes all.
Also, khan academy is superb!

Napoleon Bonaparte

haha, he was totally building the suspense on the name of the artillery captain. And when he gave the answer...
I should've known that. too bad they didn't teach it at my school.
@hifhif123

"refrigerator heater" lol
Sal, what do you mean , the nobles started hoarding the grain, what did that mean?
@pongman
If only i knew about sal when i was in high school
Any French revolution vid is 100x better than the one History Channel made.
18:23 Would that be 1793, not 1792, for setting up of Public Safety? You've already had Louis XVI being guillotined in Jan. 1793.
what programm does he use to write like that?
Maybe he just uses paint with a black background
And finally the excesses of the Jacobins and the Committee for Public Safety can only be understood in the context of that war. France could not win it without quickly suppressing internal counter-revolutionary factions and dragooning everyone into line behind the Revolutionary cause.

How does one logically explain that the answer to poverty is a war?
I hope this is accurate! Else I got my facts wrong.
@oO0killer0Oo A video suggestion? Sure. Search for Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party. Part 7 should be particularly enlightening.
this video is helpful
@mysty0 What's wrong with it?
gotta love the repubic of France
Ali Ward bir şey
cv 🏚️🏚️
18:15
Antonieta...
Khan Academy Committee of Public Safety was formed in 1793, not 1792. :)
+Ashutosh Rai That name is hillarious
Morgen Vade As in ?
Ashutosh Rai Committee of Public Safety it sounds like something kids make up in Safety School. History is filled with a funny spin on names.
+Morgen Vade hahaha...so true.
Tnx for the viddddddd -333
What goes around comes around lol that beyonce song started playin in my head:P
@tan240sx u mean lots of parallels with every revolution in every country since the dawn of time =P
"let me write this in a bloody color" haha. Hope this isn't video isn't for preparing us for history to repeat itself. Well, revolution is fine, but hopefully not quite this bloody.
is it freezing at 6:45 for anyone else?!
@tan240sx
video suggestions?

Holy cow, lots of parallels with China's Cultural Revolution.

7;40
Why were nobles emigrating out of France ?
Because the new state was stealing them. Later the state begun murdering people and...
it's just like Warcraft III Reign of terror, lol
Why doesn't he pick up the phone? :p
Well, you know, except for about half of America.

To hold off prussian and other armies, france relied on mass conscription (known as the leve en mass)
Except instead of starving the people are obese

U.S. is not starving?
