The old woman Europe, having already lost her breast elasticity, after the events of 1848-1849 lost also a part of the omnipotence of the ruling elite. So just the guys in wigs gave away their privileges? Of course not, and let's see what the simple people had to do to fight for their rights.
But to begin with, let's briefly go over the reasons why the townspeople, peasants and artisans bombed:
The "savagery" of the monarchs and their unwillingness to respond to new challenges of the time.
2. Ubiquitous industrialization and the crowding out of the “caste” of artisans into the garbage pit.
3. Preservation of serfdom and a small probability of breaking out of hereditary bondage on the land of a nobleman.
An important factor was the emergence of industries where private investors invested a crazy amount of funds. And it did not fall at all for them, because of the order of the crowned fool on the throne, their money was wasted. So many industrialists supported the growth of self-awareness of wage earners and created the conditions for the growth of the revolutionary movement.
It seems that France is ahead of the rest, both in the affairs of revolutions and in the execution of its own monarchs. Here, no one competed.
Blue, white, red against golden lilies
18 years on the throne of France for Louis-Philippe, considered the "people's king", thoroughly brainwashed him, and he turned from a liberal into a genie for the nobility.
On the proposal to create a National Assembly, in order to curb the presumptuous landowners and industrial monopolists, our king sent petitioners in three letters. And the repeated repetition of this process undermined the fifth point in the population.
Since there was a ban on public gatherings in the country, banquets began to be organized all over Paris, where dangerous topics were discussed in the form of wishes and health resorts.
The National Guard, sent to suppress this arbitrariness, refused to shoot civilians, and the streets of Paris bristled with a thousand barricades.
The townspeople’s request was simple: “Louis-Philippe, let’s you not dress here and dump in England, as your glorious ancestor, you know, to avoid it yourself ...” Well, the monarch, having painted a little brown trousers made of expensive silk, accepted the offer rebels.
France entered the period of the Second Republic:
Introduced suffrage for men.
2. The number of unemployed has been reduced due to the National workshops that produce every little thing. The main advantage is a fixed payment for products for each employee.
Due to the unprofitability of such workshops, they gradually began to cover up, and the peasants were offered to join the army or knead gum ... dung for earthworks in the province.
A wave of obscenities and curses fell on the republican government, people took to the streets, and regular troops gave them lead bullets. The confrontation killed more than two thousand people.
Following this, the Napoleon Bonaparte’s nephew Louis Napoleon, who conceived the plan-trap with the revival of the French empire, bent all at the election of the people's president.
