Why was the demand for a national assembly in German regions not merely an administrative demand?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because it was a political demand for national unity and civil rights
The governing concept is political nationalism combined with liberal constitutionalism. German territories were divided among several states, and the proposed national assembly aimed to create a united nation with a representative constitution and civil rights. Thus the demand concerned who should hold political authority, not merely how officials should administer territory. Option A is correct; the alternatives reduce the demand to taxation, royal privilege or an issue unrelated to constitutional government.
