Review the lesson “Voting in France from 1815 to 1870”

This review game covers a single lesson of the French history curriculum for 4e: “Voting in France from 1815 to 1870”, from the unit “Society, culture and politics in 19th-century France.” Its questions are about who votes and how, from property-based voting to universal male suffrage, with two revolutions and the Second Empire.

Each round has 10 questions drawn at random from the lesson: multiple choice, true or false, fill in the blanks, matching, short answers and timelines. After each answer, an explanation recalls what to remember. Hints are free, and you can go back.

The game follows the French national curriculum: 4e is the third year of middle school in France, for students aged 13 to 14. Elsewhere, it works as general knowledge for curious learners of that age. Play it again and you get other questions: it is good practice right after the lesson or before a test.

Tip for a successful review

For each period, ask the same question: who has the right to vote? Property-based voting depends on wealth; put each change on a timeline to see at what point all men can vote. If you get it wrong, read the explanation carefully: it tells you what to remember.
