What If the French Revolution Never Happened?

What if the French Revolution never happened simply because King Louis XVI refused to fund the American Revolution? In May 1776, a single stroke of a royal pen could have averted the storming of the Bastille and the Reign of Terror, at the cost of George Washington’s life. Without French gold, ships, and muskets, the American rebellion collapses, leaving the British Empire unchallenged and the French Bourbon monarchy intact. But saving the crown's treasury didn't save the world from chaos; it merely delayed an explosive, industrialized class war. #frenchrevolution #alternatehistory #historydocumentary #whatif #napoleon Enjoying the journey down these alternate timelines?
