Why the american revolution was better than the french revolution

We should rather say that the American Revolution was an accomplished social and political project, which the French Revolution was not.

The 13 colonies of America issued a Declaration of Independence and passed a Constitution that were constructed around many ideals of the Enlightenment, incorporating the ideas of personal liberty, right to life, pursuit of happinness as natural rights of men. The best fruit of the Revolutionary War is the birth of the United States, a successful democratic republic.

The French Revolution proclaimed the Rights of Man and was also inspired by the lofty ideals of Enlightenment. It was radical, having overthrown and beheaded a king, an astonishing event in a monarchy-dominated Europe. However, the revolution in France led to chaos, power abuses abd revolutionary terror. The revolution ended in 1799, when Napoleon Bonaparte took power. A few years later, he crowned himself as emperor.
