The Austrian government's position as prime reactionary was certainly due in large part to its fear of dissolution were

    Fearing that they would lose power, many European countries worked together to crush the French Revolution to lower the possibility of uprisings in their own countries. Austria and Prussia were highly alarmed with the dethroning of the French monarchy, prompting them to urge the French to restore Louis XVI to power. As a result, the Legislative Assembly declared war on the allies. During Napoleon’s rule, Britain, Russia, Austria, and Sweden feared his ambitions to conquer all of Europe and allied against France.…

The new coalitions formed were the Popular Front on the left, which ranged from the Republican Union Party to Communists, as well as the Frente Nacional on the right, which ranged from the center radicals to the conservative Carlists. On February 16th, 1936 the Popular Front won by a narrow margin. The days that followed the Popular Front had launched a campaign with the support of the government against Opposition whom they accused of plotting against the Republic. It was seen that Spain was in imminent danger of falling under a “Communist dictatorship”, and therefore it was seen that fighting against the democratically elected Popular Front they, the Opposition were merely doing their duty in defense of law and order and the freedom of the Spanish people.…

    The American Revolution began in 1775 as open conflict between the united thirteen colonies and Great Britain. By the Treaty of Paris that ended the war in 1783, the colonies had won their independence. While no one event can be pointed to as the actual cause of the revolution, the war began as a disagreement over the way in which Great Britain treated the colonies versus the way the colonies felt they should be treated. Americans felt they deserved all the rights of Englishmen. The British, on the other hand, felt that the colonies were created to be used in the way that best suited the crown and parliament. This conflict is embodied in one of the rallying cries of the American Revolution: No Taxation Without Representation.…
