Answer» This statement was said by Metternich which means when any type of revolution starts in France then whole Europe also starts. This\xa0statement was said by the Austrian chancellor, Duke Metternich\xa0because the liberals in\xa0Europe\xa0got inspired by the revolutions by the liberals in\xa0France\xa0to overthrow the monarchy, and form a representative government whose members were elected by the active citizens of the country. New ideas such as \'liberalism\', \'end of conservatism and aristocracy\', \'abolition of clerical privileges and feudal dues\' as well as \'equality of all before the law\' rose, which brought in its wake sweeping changes in the political and mental set-up of Europe. |
