Welcome back, AP Euro Crammers! In this stream we tackle the first half of Unit 5, specifically looking at the Old Regime and the Causes of the French Revolution. We situate the major European powers in the 18th century and examine who's gaining power and who's losing power. We also examine the Agricultural Revolution and outline the major impacts it has on the time period. Finally, we introduce the French Revolution and examine the short term and long term causes of it.
