2. Summarize the French Revolution.  Basically the French Revolution can be summarized in three words:  "a senseless bloodbath".  More specifically, it was the result of an inherently corrupted system which was based on an aristocratic government that could easily shut down the popular delegation's opinion.  As extreme poverty spread to the majority of the French the extreme gluttony of the upper class epitomized by degeneration such as Marquis de Sade gave the French a good cause to topple the system. As the French overthrew the current system they soon realized they didn't know where to go, and so they based their government on hatred: of Christianity as shown in their idiotic state religion, of the rich as shown in their merciless and reckless use of the guillotine, and of the past as shown in their progressive reforms such as the creation of a 10 day week.  The leaders soon were killed and Napoleon capitalized to take power and transform France into basically the same France as it was before the revolution.

:Superb, concise explanation of the French Revolution.  Your three-word summary -- "a senseless bloodbath" -- is worthy of a movie or book title about this sorry episode of world history.  Your analysis of the causes and the result afterward are excellent as well.
