First Coalition
Definition
First Coalition: formed in 1792, Austrians and Prussians kept their main forces in eastern Europe, more afraid of each other and of Russia in the matter of Poland than of the French revolutionary republic. Main accomplishment of coalition was the extermination of the Polish state. 1795 French broke up coalition. British withdrew their army from the Continent. Prussians made a separate peace, the French bought them off by recognizing them as “protectors” of Germany north of the river Main. Spain also made separate peace in 1795.The world saw the spectacle of an alliance between Bourbon Spain and the republic which had guillotined Louis XVI and kept Louis XVIII from his monarchic rights. Spain simply reverted to the 18th century pattern, in allying with France because of hostility to Great Britain. First Coalition was dispersed when Austria signed the peace of Campo Formio in 1797.

Peace of Amiens so repugnant to british war aims that probably it would not have lasted in any case, but Bonaparte gave it no chance. Used peace as he did war to advance his interests. Despatched a sizable army to Haiti to win back a rebellious French colony, but with the further thought of reviving the French colonial empire in America. He reorganized the Helvetic Republic, making himself “mediator” of the Confederation of Switzerland.

a pivotal event during the French Revolution. The Oath was a pledge signed by all but one members from the Third Estate and a few members of the First Estate during a meeting of the Estates-General of 20 June 1789 in a tennis court building near the Palace of Versailles. On the morning of 20 June the deputies were shocked to discover that the doors to their chamber were locked and guarded by soldiers. Immediately fearing the worst and anxious that a royal coup by King Louis XVI was imminent, the deputies congregated in a nearby indoor real tennis court where they took a solemn collective oath "never to separate, and to meet wherever circumstances demand, until the constitution of the kingdom is established and affirmed on solid foundations."
The deputies pledged to continue to meet until a constitution had been written, despite the royal prohibition. The oath was both a revolutionary act, and an assertion that political authority derived from the people and their representatives rather than from the monarch himself. Their solidarity forced Louis XVI to order the clergy and the nobility to join with the Third Estate in the National Assembly.

The Paris Commune
Definition
March-May 1871, seemed to be another explosion of social revolution. Patriotic and republican, anti-German, opposed to wealthy bourgeois, aristocrats and clergy, in favor of government controls upon prices, wages and working condidtions, but still not socialist in any sweeping or systematic way. It existed before the split between anarchists and socialists had taken place, and it is hailed by both groups as the first assumption of power by the working class. Debates over the policies and outcome of the Commune contributed to the break between those two political groups.

In a formal sense, the Paris Commune was simply the local authority, the city council (in French, the "commune"), which exercised power in Paris for two months in the spring of 1871. However, the conditions in which it was formed, its controversial decrees, and its ignominious end makes its tenure one of the more important political episodes of the time.
