It could be argued that the French Revolution effectively ended its cycle in 1870 with the Third Republic, after two more upheavals (1830, 1848), two emperors and a few less powerful kings. The country ended up a lot better than it was at the beginning, and grew tremendously on almost all counts.
Also, it was one of the most interesting periods for arts and litterature ever to occur. Great example indeed
After a brief period of show trials and bloodletting.
