Study Notes
- The text discusses Chapter First of the 10th History book named "Droits de l'Homme et du Citoyen" by Rousseau.
- Rousseau, a monk, created four pictures in this painting, depicting the Democratic Republic of Kar, showing the people holding a charter and a man representing the system, with a long line, implying the oppression of the system and the people rising against it.
- Prior to the French Revolution, the power rested in the hands of the French monarchy, who ruled over the people without any power given to them; monarchs ruled by breeding, with each one's son succeeding, creating a long system of rule.
- The French Revolution disrupted this power structure, allowing the power to shift to the French common citizens, who, before, could only observe the power dynamics and the political and constitutional changes brought about by the revolution.
- During the revolution, the old tracks were abolished, giving way to a new flat system, introducing three color-thirds, with the French people proclaiming the National Flag, and the French citizens adopting a new national ensemble, taking an oath and forming a new national assembly.
- This shift in power came with the establishment of the Sixth International Customs Duty, which was an international treaty that aimed to regulate trade and commerce among nations, and was liked and supported by the people, leading to its adoption and renaming as the National Assembly.
- The French Revolution brought about significant changes in the way power was structured in Europe, allowing citizens to participate in the political and social discourse, and leading to the establishment of the modern nation-state system.
