Napoleon's cleieat in 1815 led to a rollbackof some of the revolutionary measures, but nranr oi these returned during subsequentpolitical changes in the nineteenth centlrr\. The Revolution provided something of a

blueprint for the constitutions of a mocJern state,

The Revolution was guided bv nranr oi the philosophical ideas developed in theeighteenth-century Enlightenment. The \nrerlcan Revolution and the constitution itengendered were direct inspirations.r-s \\c , The French Revolution r,vas also a massive
