select one:

b. executing king louis xvi
c. storming the bastille

The correct answer is letter A.

Explanation: The people of France led to the abolition of the absolute monarchy and the establishment of the first French Republic. Just six weeks after the Bastille assault, and just three weeks after the abolition of feudalism, a Declaration of Human and Citizen's Rights, that was adopted by the National Constituent Assembly as the first step in writing a constitution for the Republic of France.

The Declaration proclaims that all citizens must be guaranteed the rights of “freedom, property, security, and resistance to oppression”. This argues that the necessity of the law stems from the fact that “… the exercise of each man's natural rights has only those boundaries which ensure that other members of society enjoy these same rights”. Therefore, the Declaration sees the law as “an expression of the general will”, which is intended to promote this equality of rights and to prohibit “only actions harmful to society”.
