Given the lectures and the textbook, please discuss the French Revolution through the beginning of Napoleon Bonaparte’s reign in 1799 (which is considered to be the end of the French Revolution).  While your focus should be on the French Revolution, you must also engage in a comparative analysis of the American Revolution and the influence of that event on France.  For both events, you should discuss various events, to include dates, leadership, and results.  Ultimately, your discussion should include an assessment of the successes and failures (if any) of both events.  Please be thorough, include relevant factual data, and discussion of that data.
