Which statement best explains the French Revolution of 1789 as a multi-place movement?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The representative struggle at Versailles, the Bastille attack in Paris and the Great Fear in villages were connected
The Revolution unfolded simultaneously in several locations and through different kinds of action. Deputies challenged authority at Versailles, crowds attacked the Bastille in Paris, and peasants responded to fear and rumours in the countryside during the Great Fear. These events were connected by a wider crisis of monarchy and privilege. Therefore option A is correct; the other options wrongly reduce the movement to one place or institution.
