The decision of 1794 was linked with which revolutionary institution?

Correct answer: National Convention

The direct answer is option A: the National Convention. In the history of the French Revolution, the revolutionary government in France passed a decree in 1794 abolishing slavery in French colonies. Step 1: identify the year, 1794. Step 2: connect that year with the institution exercising revolutionary legislative authority. Step 3: that institution was the National Convention. Option A is correct. Option B, the Estates-General of 1614, belongs to an earlier period and was not the body that made the 1794 decision. Option C, the Royal Council, represented the monarchy, whereas the 1794 abolition was a revolutionary decision. Option D, Bastille Administration, was not the legislative institution responsible for this law; the Bastille was a fortress and prison, not such a national law-making body. Memory cue: 1794—National Convention—abolition of slavery.
