What shows that the Revolution in 1789 did not remain limited to the assembly?

Bastille was stormed in Paris and peasants revolted in villages

The Revolution was not confined to speeches, debates, or decisions inside a representative assembly. In Paris, ordinary people attacked the Bastille, a fortress associated with royal authority. In the countryside, peasants also took action against feudal records, dues, and the privileges of landlords. These events show that the Revolution involved both political institutions and mass movements in towns and villages.

The important evidence is the combination of the Bastille attack in Paris and peasant revolts in rural areas. Together they show that revolutionary action spread across different parts of society and geography. A peaceful ending of the Estates-General would not show popular action, and the other statements are historically incorrect. Therefore, option A best demonstrates that the Revolution moved beyond the assembly.
