Why did the Arab spring and Iranian Green movement failed for the most part, but the European revolution did not?
Upvote:13
There were plenty of European revolutions which led to terrible casualties and not much democracy, both before and after the French revolution.
- The Hussite wars.
- The English revolution of 1688.
- The German revolutions of 1848/49.
- The Paris commune of 1870.
The revolutionaries simply tried again, or they faded away when conditions changed.
