Abstract

The French Revolution is rightly regarded as a major milestone in human history. Its most famous ideas of equality and freedom have endured up to the present day, but these were not the only ideas promoted during this turbulent time. In order to establish a new social order, the revolutionaries proposed, among other things, the use of decimal time which was part of the so-called Republican calendar. This chapter will focus on the circumstances of the creation, application, and the use of the decimal (time) system, analyse the reaction of society, and explain the reasons for the early demise of this revolutionary undertaking.

共和国时间的十进制失败的法国大革命（1793-1795 年）

法国大革命被正确地视为人类历史上的一个重要里程碑。大革命中最著名的平等和自由思想一直流传至今，但在这个动荡的时代，这些并不是唯一被提倡的思想。为了建立新的社会秩序，革命者提出了使用十进制时间的建议，这也是所谓的共和国历的一部分。本章将重点介绍十进制（时间）系统的创立、应用和使用情况，分析社会的反应，并解释这一革命事业提前消亡的原因。
