All The Age of Revolution

1789 to 1848, named directly for Eric Hobsbawm's The Age of Revolution: Europe 1789-1848, one of the most widely cited period framings in modern historiography for exactly this span: the French Revolution itself, the Napoleonic Wars and the coalition that opposed them, the Spanish American wars of independence and the Haitian Revolution, the Congress of Vienna that redrew Europe afterward, and the early Industrial Revolution whose own live relationship in this atlas already ties it to the broader nineteenth-century band this subcategory refines. Belongs here: an event primarily dated 1789 to 1848. Does not belong here: an event dated after 1848, grouped under The Age of Capital, The Age of Empire or The Age of Extremes by its own date.
