Why did liberal nationalists oppose autocratic rule?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because they wanted a constitution and representative government
The governing concept is liberal nationalism’s opposition to arbitrary authority. Autocratic rulers concentrated power and limited public participation, accountability, and civil liberties. Liberal nationalists therefore demanded constitutions, representative institutions, equality before the law, and accountable government. Option A is correct. Unlimited royal power, suppression of freedom, and expanded feudal rule are characteristics of the system they challenged, not their aims.
