参考范文：

At the end of 18th century, most of the world was ruled by absolute emperors and kings, men whose authority and decisions could not be questioned. They supported and were supported by small ruling classes who lived lives of privilege and comfort, while the majority of the people slaved all year round to produce barely enough to live on and play all the taxes they owned.

The situation in France was particularly bad. The king lived in splendor in his great palace, where people starved to death in the country lanes and back streets of the kingdom. The result of this war, in the end, revolution.

The revolution had many effects, mainly on Europe — but the point I want to emphasize is the example this gave of the people of a great country deciding to change its system of government and to put the needs of the people first. History is not a straight road, but 130 years after the French Revolution most of kings and nobles had gone. Most of Europe had shaken off its kings.
