Events
Louis XVI takes the throne in the midst of a
financial crisis caused by French involvement
in the American Revolution and the Seven Years War.
The nation nears bankruptcy. Jacques Necker takes his position as the
Controller-General of Finances. He was not
received well by the king's ministers as he
proposed to restrict the power of the
parlements and reduce the tax exemptions
of the nobility. Necker is dismissed and Charles
Alexandre de Calonne takes his
position. The man tried to
propose a land tax for all to
relieve the economy but failed
due to the powerlessness of the
French crown. The American presidential elections ends with
George Washington nominated George Washington is unanimously elected as
President of the United States King Gustav III of Sweden enforces the Union
and Security Act, ending Sweden's 70-year-old
parliamentarian system, in favor of absolute

effect, with the United States Congress replacing
the Congress of the Confederation. Salim II of the Ottoman Empire takes the

Commonwealth proclaims the Constitution of
May 3, 1791, the first modern codified
constitution in Europe. The Priestley Riots against Dissenters break out
in Birmingham, England. The Brandenburg Gate in Berlin is finished. This is the date in which the timeline divergences from ours. Ideals of Republicanism from the French
Revolution spreads, but this time slower than in
our timeline. Power of the Carlists began diminishing as
more and more people were becoming
staunch Federalists and challenging the policies
of the Carlist government. The Duchy of Lorraine is officially integrated as
another state of the Holy Roman Empire. Grouping

already deeply in French land at a dillema as they
might be surrounded if they do not fall back and
retake Arlon. Battle of Beaumont between French and Anglo-Austrian
forces results in an Anglo-Austrian victory
under the Duke of York, allowing these forces to
retake Arlon, and thus the Prussian army no longer
has to fall back. In August 1794 the British launch an invasion
of French Corsica, eventually succeeding and
forming the nation of the Anglo-Corsican Kingdom The Siege of Collioure takes place in southern
France, seeking to encircle Spanish forces.
However, the french commander Jacques

Bourbon monarchy is reinstated. The Treaty of Paris is signed with the restoration
of the Bourbon monarchy in France and Louis
XVII takes the throne. The Duchy of Lorraine
also gains its independence. However, only
some generals and politicians of the Republican
army agreed to sign the treaty, and those who
oppose it continue to fight. Spain, Britain and
Prussia back out of the war whilst Austria continues
fighting. The fractured and demoralised Republican army
meets the Austrian and Royalist army in the
Battle of Bordeaux and they are swiftly defeated,
with the city now under siege. Republican officials are spotted fleeing the city
in hopes of reaching Spain but most are
captured and executed. The Republican army in Bordeaux officially
surrender to the Austrian and Royalist forces,
ending the Siege of Bordeaux and the War of
the First Coalition. The National Convention is

The National Assembly is gradually joined
by the nobles and clergy. Louis XVI orders the hall in which
the Assembly is convened in,
closed. However, this proved
inaffective as the Assembly merely
moved to other locations to
convene. The Third Estate takes the Tennis Court Oath,
vowing to reassemble whenever the
circumstances require it The Assembly, now deprived of the tennis
court, assembles in the Church of Saint
Louis instead; the majority of the clergy
joins them as well The National Assembly is renamed to
the National Constituent Assembly and
functions as a governing body. The Storming of Bastille happens, and the
prison soon fell to the invading mob. The king,
alarmed by this violence, backed down. The meeting of the Estates-General
convenes in Versailles. The meeting
would end in an impasse as the
three Estates are unable to come onto
an agreement. The National Assembly is established
by the Third Estate Louis XVI visits Paris and accepts a tricolor cockade. By late july, the ideals of the people ruling
and being sovereign has spread and gained
popularity in France. Priviledges and feudalism were abolished
in the August Decrees. The tax for the Church
was abolished as well as rights for the
Second Estate. The Declaration of the Rights of Man
and the Citizen was published and
was comprised of a statement of
principles Women march on Versailles, demanding an
end to royal efforts to stop the Assembly, and
wanting the king to move to Paris. They were
also responding to the harsh economic
situations faced. The king complies and moves to Paris,
thus legitimising the National
Assembly The Assembly declares the property of the church
to be at the disposal of the nation in response
to the economic crisis All religious orders were
abolished The Civil Constitution of the Clergy was passed,
making the remaining clergy into employees
of the state An obligatory oath of loyalty was put in place by
the Assembly, and 50% of the clergy went ahead,
whilst the others waited for Pope Pius XI's
response Pope Pius XI decides that the oath is
against the beliefs of the church. He
condemned those who took the oath
and chastised Louis XVI for signing
the document allowing the oath to
happen. The oath was disliked by
some of the French population and
the other 50% of the clergy. Legislation
against the clergy soon came into place,
forcing them into exile or execution if
they did not comply. This greatly
isolated the french church. In 1793 the Republican Calender was
established On 14 July 1790, and for several days following,
crowds in the Champ de Mars celebrated the
anniversary of the fall of the Bastille with the
Fête de la Fédération In late 1790 the French army was in constant
disarray, with much disorder within the
ranks Louis XVI sided with General Bouillé, who
promised him refuge and support, so the
royal family flees the Tuileries Palace under
a disguise The king was recognised and arrested at
Varennes, then returned to Paris where he
was suspended and held under guard. The
escape had an impact on the populace,
further popularising the idea of a
constituational monarchy. Soon, a
compromised was met where Louis XVI was
left mostly as a figurehead. The Declaration of Pillnitz was issued bythe
King's brother-in-law Holy Roman Emperor
Leopold II, King Frederick William II of Prussia,
and the King's brother Charles-Philippe, comte
d'Artois, declaring their intention to bring the
French king in the position "to consolidate the
basis of a monarchical government" and that
they were preparing their own troops for
action,hinting at an invasion of France on the
King's behalf. The National Assembly's last session was
adjourned as the king accepted a constitution
that contained the various constitutional laws
in it, and much applause was received by
members and spectators. The Legislative Assembly, elected by 4 million of
those who paid a certain amount of taxes, first met
on this day. Citizens of Paris celebrate the unity of the
French people and the national reconciliation, in
the Fête de la Fédération. The Champ de Mars Massacre occurs. The Papal States lose Avignon to Revolutionary
France. The Declaration of the Rights of Woman and the
Female Citizen is published in France. The Tuileries Palace is stormed, and Louis XVI of
France is arrested and taken into custody. September Massacres: Rampaging mobs
slaughter three Roman Catholic bishops and
more than 200 priests, together with at least
1,000 criminals. After being found guilty of treason by the French
National Convention, Citizen Capet, Louis XVI of
France, is guillotined in Paris. Regular troops under François Hanriot demand
that the Girondins be expelled from the
National Convention. The Girondins are overthrown in France. Feast of Unity: Crowds in Paris burn monarchist
emblems. The following universal conscription decree is
enacted in France: "The young men shall go to
battle and the married men shall forge arms.
The women shall make tents and clothes and
shall serve in the hospitals; children shall tear
rags into lint. The old men will be guided to the
public places of the cities to kindle the courage
of the young warriors and to preach the unity of
the Republic and the hatred of kings." The National Convention begins the 10-month
Reign of Terror. The French First Republic abolishes slavery. Robespierre establishes the Cult of the Supreme
Being as the new state religion of the French
First Republic. Thermidorian Reaction: Robespierre and Saint-
Just are arrested on the orders of the French
National Convention; they are executed the next
day, ending the French Revolution's Reign of
Terror. Occupation of territory in the French Revolutionary Wars

1804: Major politicians in Spain are swayed by
the Republican ideals that have spread from
France to Spain and a major political divide in
the government begins between the Loyalists,
Carlists and Republicans The Spanish king, Charles IX was assassinated
by a Republican. The Loyalists were furious at
this and soon put in place strict laws to control
the Republican popularity. They took the chance
to also restrict Carlist popularity, in order to
reassert control. On the eve of 1817 war would break out as the
Carlists and Republicans would have had
enough. They stormed Madrid and the
government buildings but the Loyalists held on.
The military soon stepped in in the side of the
Loyalist and now they fight the Republican and
Carlist militias. Soon fighting would break out all
over the country and the First Carlist War would
begin. Federalist supporters and Unionist supporters
in the Republican side had a heated argument
and since tensions between both sides were
already high due to a conflict of interests,
the Republican cause fractured and split into
two. The First Carlist War finally comes to an end as
The Carlists emerge victorious. The Carlist now
have full control over Spain and are now
cracking down on the Republican cause, but to
little success. The Louisiana Purchase between Spain and
the United States of America happens with
the US giving a large sum to the Bourbon
Spanish government for control of Louisiana.
The Loyalists are losing the Carlist war and lack
enough money to fund the war effort, thus this
allows them to survive a few more years before
being defeated in 1815 Many Loyalists, upon seeing imminent defeat,
flee to Mexico where they establish the Empire
of Mexico under the Bourbon crown, and seek
to one day reclaim the land of Hispania. The Viceroy of New Granada rejects Carlist
rule in loyalty to the Bourbon crown. The state
declares freedom from the government in
Spain and pledges loyalty to the Bourbons in
Mexico, but remains technically independent
from the Mexican government. The officials of New Granada and the government
of Mexico agree on a Treaty of Mutual Assistance
where both sides agree to help each other in times
of war. Both nations seek to reclaim the lost
Spanish lands. Second Carlist War - Hover over this blue box below and then click the box shown to see all the individual events! -
Events
Carlos, king of Carlist Spain, dies with no heir to
the throne. The Carlist government is in utter
disarray as the pretenders seek to rise up and
take the throne. During this chaos of the inheritance of kings, the
Federalists rose up in mass riots in the streets. The provincial Carlist government denounces
the Federalists ideals. The Federalists are furious at this and soon
they declare a state of civil war, thus begins
the Second Carlist War. The Federalists emerge victorious and the Carlists
flee to nearby France and Portugal in search of
political asylum. The colonies of Peru and
Argentina pledge loyalty to the new government.
