A revolution not only overthrows a repressive regime; it also destroys the old order, paving the way for a mostly brutal, if not bloody, fight for power to establish a new one – a process that affects foreign and domestic policy alike. Normally, revolutions are followed by dangerous times.
革命不但席卷了镇压性政权，也摧毁了旧秩序，造成残酷（如果不是血腥的话）的新权力争夺——这一过程会影响国内和国外政策。通常，随革命而来的是危机四伏的岁月。
