After the revolution in France who became more important in the language of political rights?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Citizens
The French Revolution changed political language by placing the citizen, rather than the king or a privileged estate, at the centre of public life. A citizen was understood as a member of the nation who possessed rights as well as duties. Therefore, “Citizens” is correct. Kings, nobles and foreign rulers represented older hierarchy or external authority, not the new ideal of equal civic participation.
