For what it’s worth the French revolution inspired almost everything else afterwards. For example Napoleon disseminated a new legal order wherever he conquered and rolling it back was hard. Italian unification was strongly driven by how Napoleon’s laws had been relatively liberal and people ill tolerated the attempt to return to the old order after the Congress of Vienna. And of course France itself kept having revolutions fairly regularly.
