In this exploratory essay I will explore the causes of the Egyptian revolution and where Egypt with stand in five years by looking back on the French and Russian revolutions. The Egyptian revolution was caused by a lack of human rights; freedom of speech, censorship in education that was sourced by a controlled government. The Russian Revolution began in 1917. The events occurring on Bloody Sunday lead to very large protests and thus, communist party began in Russia.There were many causes to this revolution but a main reason was because peasants living in Russia were getting unfair and harsh treatment. Workers were not content with their basic everyday lives. The French Revolution was a extreme period of time from 1789-1799, in which the monarchy government was overthrown by the citizens of France. The causes of this was the debt in France that led to the 3rd Estate paying 98% of the taxes in France.By focusing on specific events from past revolutions, the future of Egypt will become clearer. In this paragraph I will be explaining the Egyptian revolution. The uprising that started on Tuesday, January 25, 2011 is still continuing. protesters were focused on legal and political issues including police brutality, state of emergency laws, lack of free elections and uncontrollable corruption,and economic issues including high unemployment, food price inflation, and minimum wages.The primary demands from protesters were for the end of the Hosni Mubarak regime and the end of emergency law. The Future of Egypt lies between the control of government and to achieve the citizen’s needs, what is to come in the near future is for time to tell. When the Army lost faith in Mubarak, he finally gave the citizens what they wanted and resigned, and granted power to the Vice President; Omar Suleiman. From the span of 2010-2011 the unemployment rate went up 3.2 percent, from 9% to 12.2%. The revolution has much to do with the denial of rights, cenorship throughout the education system, plus the mass amount of people who are unemployed. The current leader of the country is Omar Suleiman Egyptian military until the elections that are occuring in May to vote a new leader to power. In this paragraph ill be comparing the relations between Louis XIV and Hosni Mubarak. King Louis XVI of France is similar to former president of Egypt, Hosni Mubarak. Louis XVI and Mubarak were both leaders of their country who got ousted from their position because they took rights away from their people, which caused them to be overthrown by their citizens. (in photo below) In both cases, the citizens wanted better living conditions like liberty, equality, inalienable rights, (French Revolution) less political issues, more freedom and less economic issues (Egyptian Revolution). Both leaders were controlling, unfair, and corrupted leaders that could care less about the well being of their people so they received the consequences, of being beheaded by the Guillotine (King Louis XVI) and being overthrown from power (Hosni Mubarak). Hosni Mubarak was put on trial with his two sons for Death of Protestors. Egypt's prosecutor general announced” after weeks of investigation into the crackdown and alleged corruption. In a statement on Facebook, the prosecutor said that the crimes committed by Mubarak were "intentional murder, attempted killing of some demonstrators, misuse of influence and deliberately wasting public funds and unlawfully making private financial gains and profits." More than 800 people died at the hands of security forces loyal to Mubarak. The former president resigned from office on February 11 after an enormous 18-day uprising that brought thousands upon thousands of Egyptians into the streets. The Egyptian uprising helped stimulate the 'Arab Spring' that has since spread to Libya and Syria. Louis XVI, king of France Ascending the throne in 1774, Louis inherited a realm driven nearly bankrupt through the opulence of his predecessors Louis XIV and XV. After donning the crown, things only got worse. The economy spiraled downward (unemployment in Paris in 1788 is estimated at 50%), crops botched; the price of bread and other food climbed. The people were not pleased. In 1788, Louis was forced to restore France's National Assembly (the Estates-General), which quickly shortened the king's powers. In the following year, the mobs of Paris stormed the prison. The pack forced the imprisonment of Louis. In 1792, the newly elected National Convention declared France a republic and brought Louis to trial for crimes against the people. And then got the death penalty. In this paragraph ill be comparing the Egyptian Protestors vs. The Bolsheviks. The Egyptian Revolution of 2011 relates in many ways back to the Russian Revolution and a vast comparison between the two were the people fighting for new rights. In the modern Egyptian revolution the citizens in Egypt were fighting Mubarak to give them equal rights and to stop the censorship of the education. In the Russian revolution the Bolsheviks similar to the Egyptian protestors were demanding new rights exclusively focusing on Equality. Behind Vladimir Lenin the Bolsheviks became the communist party of the U.S.S.R. Right now in Egypt, it has its elections coming up in May. During The protests in Egypt Ursula Lindsey a reporter for the world news got a word with two activists who said, “These dictators, they never learn their lesson,” and “that they’re ready to die to free Egypt from this terrible regime.” You can see the love that there two have for their struggling country. While in Russia the Bolsheviks came to power during the October Revolution and ultimately became the Communist party of Russia during that time. This was a party that consisted of workers under a ladder system governed by democratic centralism. The main leaders to this revolution were Vladimir Lenin and Leon Trotsky and under him they considered themselves the revolutionary working class of Russia. In this paper I investigated the foundation of the Egyptian revolution and where Egypt with stand in five years by looking back on the French and Russian revolutions. I explained the Egyptian Revolution, I evaluated the relations between Louis XIV and Hosni Mubarak, and how they both got overthrown from power for taking rights away from their citizens, and I compared the Egyptian Protestors to the Bolsheviks, how the Protesters of Egypt wanted no censorship of education, no lack of freedom of speech, and to put a halt to the uncontrollable corruption. Meanwhile the Bolsheviks were enraged about the Tsar not giving fair rights like land and food. So by reading this essay the future of Egypt becomes clearer by focusing on specific events from past revolutions of Rusia and France.
