22: During the time of the Monarchy in France. There was a great gap between the nobility and the rest of the citizens. During the time of King Louis XVI, public enrage was becoming more evident as the kingdom's budget was being utilized in order to fund luxurious villas and the costly lifestyle of the nobles. This was the turning point that started the French Revolution in 1789.

23: The declaration of the Rights of Man and Citizen was the document which was issued during the founding of the United Nations on October 24, 1945. Its goal was for its members to aim their effort to the preservation of the essential rights of citizens and pursue higher living standards in the fields of education, public health, and safety.

24: After the ousting of the Monarchy and the rise of democracy in France, the constitution of 1791 established popular sovereignty over the country. In other words, the principle that the authority of the government is created and sustained by the exclusive consent of its people through the election of authorities.
