Delay on slavery shows which limit of the French Revolution?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The ideal of liberty could weaken before economic interests

The French Revolution proclaimed ideals such as liberty and equal rights, but these ideals were not applied consistently to everyone. In French colonies, plantation economies depended heavily on enslaved labour and the profits of colonial trade. Powerful commercial and plantation interests therefore resisted immediate abolition. The delay revealed that economic gain could limit the practical application of revolutionary principles.

Option A is correct because it expresses this contradiction: the ideal of liberty could become weaker when it threatened profitable economic arrangements. Option B is wrong because liberty was a major revolutionary idea. Option C denies the existence of slavery in French colonies, and option D wrongly claims that merchants freed enslaved people immediately. The delay exposed the limits of the Revolution.
