Summary
The American Revolution and the Egyptian Revolution of 2011 both had causes in social and economic inequalities. Students learn how these inequalities led to the American Revolution and how the same issues led to the Egyptian Revolution.
American Revolution Causes
The American Revolution resulted from many grievances that colonists had for the British. Freedom of expression, voting rights and political participation were limited before the Revolution. Inflation of goods caused problems after the Revolution.
American Revolution Aftermath
The states became more lenient in voting rights after the Revolution. Inflation of prices on goods happened because of the disruption of agriculture and trade due to the war. The huge monopoly on crops often led to confrontations of merchants and crowds.
Egyptian Revolution Causes
The 2011 revolution in Egypt happened for similar reasons as the American Revolution. This includes lack of free elections and freedom of speech, and the food price inflations. The 2010 wheat price rises and scarce food led to uprisings.
