Revolution have been a key part of both history and social change, but each one is unique in its beginnings and endings. In the American and Haitian Revolution both of the social societies were ruled by powerful nations who suppressed any form of independence. Both revolutions started with the growing tensions between the colonies and the nation that controlled the colonies. The ending of both revolutions caused the world to reanalyze the structure of governments and slavery. Although, similar in the aspect that both revolutions were based around gaining independence from dominant nations, the revolutions differed due to the colonies treatment by the controlling nations and the effects of their endings.

What is a revolution? By definition it means the overthrow of a government by those who are governed. That is exactly what the French and the Mexican revolutions were all about. The living conditions and overall treatment of the poor, pheasants, lower class, last man on the totem pole or what ever you want to call them, was a large factor in the coming of these revolutions.

Almost a year ago, Egypt broke into civil unrest when protesters flooded Tahrir Square, demanding the end of Hosnia Mubarak’s regime. Although Mubarak stepped down within two weeks, Egypt is worse off today than it was last January. The Supreme Council of Armed Forces (SCAF), which played a vital role in the January revolution, has now become a violent and oppressive force.
