Historical context and interesting facts
Revolutions often start with practical pressures like taxation, food shortages, or war costs, but they tend to spread through ideas—pamphlets, speeches, and slogans that make new political visions feel possible.
Many revolutions also produce unexpected results: reforms can expand rights for some groups while restricting others, and new regimes may mirror parts of the systems they replaced.
