Which two examples show fear turning into political energy at the outbreak of the Revolution?

The storming of the Bastille in Paris and the Great Fear in villages

Option A identifies two connected examples of popular mobilisation during the opening of the French Revolution. In Paris, rumours that royal troops might suppress the National Assembly, together with fear of repression and the need for arms, encouraged people to storm the Bastille on 14 July 1789. In the countryside, rumours that nobles were organising brigands created the Great Fear. Peasants armed themselves, attacked manor houses, and sought the destruction of feudal records. Fear therefore became collective political action in both urban and rural settings. Option B names revolutionary symbols and a later political outcome, not the two fear-driven actions. Options C and D belong to other periods and do not describe the outbreak.
