Which example does not show civic nationalism of the French Revolution?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Special rights based on birth
Civic nationalism rests on equal citizenship, common political institutions and shared national symbols. Equality before law, a common flag and a citizens’ assembly all express these revolutionary principles. Birth-based special rights are different: they preserve inherited privilege and social hierarchy, which the Revolution challenged. Thus option C is the only example that does not represent civic nationalism; the other three support it.
