Revolutionary Wave - 18th and 19th Century

18th and 19th Century

  • The wave of Atlantic Revolutions occurring at the end of the 18th century, including the American Revolution (1776), the French Revolution (1789), the Haitian Revolution (1791) and the Batavian revolution (1795). Later, the Latin American wars of independence, including the various Spanish American wars of independence of 1810–1826 were often seen as inspired at least in part by the American and French Revolutions in terms of their liberal Enlightenment ideology and aims, are counted as the second part of the Atlantic Wave.
  • The Revolutions of 1830, such as the July Revolution in France and the Belgian Revolution.
  • The Revolutions of 1848 throughout Europe, following the February Revolution in France.
