I was under the impression and correct me if I'm wrong that the French revolution was much inspired by the American revolution.

You are not wrong. The French revolutionaries did take inspiration (and occasionally direct support) from the American revolution. So did the Italian unification which named streets in Rome for George Washington. Even in England the revolution saw the first election of a Liberal government.
