The irony was that the French decision to intervene in the American Revolution exacerbated the French debt crisis that led to the French Revolution. Then after the monarchy was destroyed, a wildly unstable democracy was set up, chopping heads off left and right until it collapsed and Napoleon set up his empire.
Throw a rock in a pond and you never know where the ripples end up going.
It just shows that the people in charge have no idea what they are doing....especially in France.
