-Edward Burke was correct in his ideals of the French Revolution(mob mentality, riots). Example. Princess le Balle’s body was placed in a café and the citizens drank her blood and forced the nobles to do so as well.
- The French Revolution is mainly a stream of riots.
-Austria and Prussia are “rattling the saber”, preparing for war.
-In France there were those who where pro-monarch and were suspected to be issuing a counter revolution. To prevent these actions the Tribunal is make to go out and root out spies. Their leader, Danton , is given the title Minister of Justice. As a result of these forces 3,000 people are detained as spies.
-Verdun, between France , Germany and Belgium falls to pro-monarch forces September 1792. IN reaction to this, the Trbunal executes the detained prisoners to “preserve Paris”.
-September Massacre- release of anger toward the ancien regime lead by the Paris Commune. The participants,_____,are given money and praise.
-"La Marseillaise"- The French National anthem glorifies this massacre as protecting their country
Ye sons of France, awake to glory,
Hark, hark, what myriads bid you rise:
Your children, wives and grandsires aging,
See their tears and hear their cries,
See their tears and hear their cries!
Shall hateful tyrants mischief breeding
With hireling Hosts, a ruffian band
Affright and desolate the land,
While peace and liberty lie bleeding?

CHORUS
To arms, to arms, ye brave!
ThMarch on! march on!
All hearts resolved on victory or death.

O sacred love of Francy, undying,
ThThy defenders, death defying,
Fight with Freedom at their side.
Soon they sons shall be victorious
When the banner high is raised;
And they dying enemies, amazed,
Shall behold they triumph, great and glorious.

CHORUS
