How did the American Revolution impact the French Revolution?

The French Revolution was unlike the American one in many ways. In France the revolutionaries behaved like terrorists and even people friendly to the cause were executed. The American Constitution was far too liberal for the French revolutionaries.The French fought alongside the Americans against the English to accomplish a democratic, independent nation and the declaration of independence France as bankrupt at the time, so the people were very poor. Meanwhile they saw their monarchs in all their wealth and began to see them as tirans. The stories of the French soldiers that had fought in America began to spread and the French people wanted a democratic, independent non-royal state as well. Revolutionary ideas turned into real plans of attack. They wanted to rid themselves of a monarchy ruled by the royals, clergy and aristocrats. They wanted a say in the reigning of the country as well.Though, the French did not think it through very well, because when the revolution was over, the country was one huge chaos and no other European country wanted anything to do with the bloodthirsty French who had slaughtered thousands in their revolution.

Secondly, the nation was bankrupt and could not even properly feed its people. Looking to the American Revolution was probably not a major factor as food.
