France, Revolution of 1848, Copper Medal
|Tokens,| |Medals| |&| |Exonumia|, |France,| |Revolution| |of| |1848,| |Copper| |Medal|, The Revolutions of 1848, known as the Springtime of the Peoples or the Springtime of Nations, is the most widespread revolutionary wave in European history. The revolutions, essentially democratic and liberal, began in France in February and spread to over 50 countries. There was no significant coordination or cooperation among their respective revolutionaries. Major contributing factors were dissatisfaction with political leadership, demands for more participation in government and democracy, demands for freedom of the press, working class demands for economic rights, the upsurge of nationalism, and the European Potato Failure, which triggered mass starvation, migration, and civil unrest. The French Revolution of 1848 ended the constitutional monarchy of Louis-Philippe, and led to the creation of the French Second Republic. In Britain, there was no revolution in 1848, only a peaceful petition to Parliament. This medal commemorates the visit of the French National Guards to the City of London on 20 September 1848.
