The correct answer is: "tyrannical monarchies in power".

Both the French Revolution and the American Revolution were influenced by the principles of the Enlightment.

The Enlighment movement emerged in Europe in the 18th century and it was constituted by philosophers that promoted Reason and the scientific method over medieval superstition and religious dogmas, and the establishment of democratic societies where the power resided on its people, and not in absolute monarchs or rulers "appointed by God". The resulting states that emerged based on the principles of this movement, enacted bills of civil rights for the first time in history, and implemented principles such as the division of powers or the social contract, through which citizens elected their governors by suffrage.

Such Enlightment principles were transferred to the American colonies, where the population claimed for political representation rather than being governed by foreigners that were appointed by a foreign king. Such claims were ignored and the colonies, influenced by the new democratic principles, started several revolutionary movements for independence aiming to establish new independent states based on the Enlightment principles like in Europe.


The correct answer is “tyrannical monarchies in power”.

Further Explanation:

The American Revolution and the French Revolution had some same aspects. Though there were a lot of dissimilarities and differences between both the wars. The main difference was the context of war.  

Both “the French Revolution” and “the American Revolution” focused on equality and liberty. Both America and France wanted to gain freedom. The United States was struggling to gain “freedom” from the taxes and rules put upon by Great Britain. While France wanted to remove the “French monarchy” and create a government where people of the country will have a say in society. However, the reason behind both the revolutions was the same but the outcome was different.

In the French Revolution, people wanted to change the social structure, government, religion, economy, and all other aspects whereas American Revolution wanted a change in administration, but the “social system” remained intact.
