Why were French armies welcomed in many places at first?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because they were seen as bearers of liberty
The early French revolutionary message promised liberty, equality and an end to feudal restrictions. Consequently, people in some European regions initially viewed French armies as forces that might remove oppressive privileges and introduce modern political rights. Option A is therefore correct. The other options describe burdens or authoritarian policies that would normally create opposition rather than welcome, although later French rule did produce resentment in many places.
