The French Revolution, also called the Revolution of 1789, was a transformative event in European history, one of the first in a series of events that brought about the end of absolute monarchy and religious hegemony in Europe and paved the way for constitutional monarchies and representative government. Historians have identified numerous contributing factors behind the revolution, including deepening socioeconomic disparities and growing public resentment of the privileges enjoyed by the elite social and religious classes. In addition, the new wave of political and social thought known as the Enlightenment was spreading throughout the continent, fueling interest in revolutionary opposition to the inequities of the feudal system.
