	French Revolution - LoveToKnow 1911
		The ruling spirit of this new revolution was Danton, a barrister only thirty-two years of age, who had not sat in either Assembly, although he had been the leader of the Cordeliers, an advanced republican club, and had a strong hold on the common people of Paris.
		It was seen that the French were still able to wage war, and that the revolutionary spirit had permeated the adjoining countries, while the old governments of Europe, jealous of one another and uncertain of the loyalty of their subjects, were ill qualified for resistance.
		That a revolution largely inspired by generous and humane feeling should have issued in such havoc and such crimes is a paradox which astounded spectators and still perplexes the historian.

		The internationalist spirit of the Revolution was expressed in the December Resolution of the National Assembly that declared that in any territory occupied by the armies of the Revolution, feudal obligations would be abolished and the property of the Church and aristocrats confiscated.
		The French Revolution was a bourgeois revolution, and it would be entirely mistaken to attempt to draw exact parallels between the processes involved and the movement of the modern proletariat.
		This is the way in which the French bourgeois revolution unfolded: at every stage the big bourgeoisie attempted to manoeuvre and compromise with the monarchy, dragging their feet and attempting to preserve as much as possible of the old regime.

		At the outbreak of the Revolution in 1789 he dropped everything and returned to Paris, where his lead actors voice, his writing skills, and his ability to organise and direct large-scale fetes were to come to the fore.
		He was a member of the Paris Commune (French Revolution) during the 10th of August (French Revolution) of August 10, 1792, and was elected deputy for Paris to the National Convention, where, on the first day of the Convention (September 21, 1792) he was the first to demand the abolition of royalty.
		Denounced a second time, he defended himself by pleading that he had acted for the cause of the Revolution, but in March 1795 he was condemned with Bertrand Barère de Vieuzac and Billaud-Varenne to transportation to Cayenne, French Guiana, where he exerted a brief revolutionary influence before dying of yellow fever early in 1796.
