Why can the abolition of slavery be seen as a test of the ideals of the French Revolution?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because it shows whether liberty and equality applied to slaves in colonies

Option A is correct because slavery tested whether the Revolution’s proclaimed ideals of liberty, equality, and rights would be applied consistently beyond mainland France. Revolutionary language promised universal principles, yet French colonial wealth depended heavily on plantation production and the forced labour of enslaved Africans. The contradiction between universal rights and colonial exploitation made abolition a crucial measure of the Revolution’s sincerity. The issue was not simply the king’s income, the administration of the Bastille, or women’s education. Those subjects may be part of wider revolutionary history, but they do not explain why slavery directly challenged the meaning of liberty and equality.
