Revolutionary Assemblies were gatherings formed during periods of significant political change, particularly during the American Revolution and the French Revolution. These assemblies aimed to represent the will of the people and often challenged existing authority. They played a crucial role in discussing and implementing new ideas about governance and rights. Members of Revolutionary Assemblies typically included activists, intellectuals, and ordinary citizens who sought to influence the direction of their societies. Decisions made in these assemblies often led to the establishment of new political systems and the drafting of important documents, such as the Declaration of Independence and the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen.
