Revolution History of the World

We read in history books that how many people struggle for their rights and struggle with unity. This is called Revolution, in early times people were ruled by a king so they didn’t have the important rights like Right to Freedom of Speech and Right to Religion. That time scientists were not free to express their views and experiments and if they did they were considered as blasphemy (against Religion) and were given death sentence. All these lead to Revolution.

Revolution for freedom of ideas:-

In 17^th century the people of church predicted that Earth is a centre of cosmos and the other planets including sun are revolving around it, Earth is fixed on its position. The Italian scientist Galileo Galilee observed with his telescope that Earth and the other planets are revolving around the Sun. He discovered a very big event and he had the evidence; he knew that it was risky about mobilizing the discovery to people even that he launched a book on the discovery. Galileo’s book inspired many people and scientist but not the church. Galileo was given life sentence by the church on the charge of blasphemy but Galileo had already alarmed the people and led to the revolution. Later Galileo’s discovery was accepted.

After 100 years of Revolution an English Scientist named Edward Jenner was once a patient small pox in his childhood, at that time small pox was a common disease. To heal the disease he suffered a great pain, he was suffering the terror of healing than the disease. When he became a doctor he observed that the people living in villages didn’t have the small pox. So he made an experiment on a patient of small pox he took some puss from the patient of cow pox and added to the patient of small pox after a week the patient’s disease was cured. Edward Jenner called this discovery vaccination. Today small pox is an extinct disease. Hence revolution has changed the world.

Revolution in countries:-

In 17^th century America was a British Colony, the British were raising tax on tea. America was in the terror of this taxation. An American politician Samuel Adams revolted against tea tax; he united the American workers and stormed at the ships of tea. The workers sank a trillion tone of tea and this led to American Revolution.

In late 17^th century the king of France Louise 16^th increased the tax on food grains which led to the French Revolution. After France was declared republic the king was ordered not to leave France but later he tried to escape but was unsuccessful. The king was sentenced to death.

The French’s business was on slavery. Many slaves from different countries were forced to work for free. The slaves didn’t like the system and revolted against it after 50 years France abolished slavery

Everyone in this world has struggled for his rights and freedom and has made history.
