The French Revolution (1789–1799) was a period of radical political and social upheaval in France that ended the Bourbon monarchy, abolished feudal privilege, and propagated ideals of citizenship and inalienable rights through France and across Europe. Triggered by fiscal crisis, food scarcity, and Enlightenment political philosophy, it produced the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen (1789), the abolition of the monarchy (1792), the Reign of Terror (1793–94), and ultimately the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte.
