It is simply technical evolution, partly "product politics":

RH7.2 -> RH7.3 -> RH8 -> RH9 | break: Red Hat decided to stop the Red
Hat Linux product and the Fedora Project was started (merger with
existing Fedora activities mainly lead by Warren Togami)
FC1 -> FC2 -> FC3 -> FC4 (very soon out)

So FC1 could be called with some good reasons kind of RH10. All the time
since RH7.2 (it is rather old, EOL, neither supported by RH nor FLP) was
current new technologies are realized and integrated into the
distribution. If you are used to work with Red Hat Linux there is no big
barrier to quickly feel home with Fedora.
