Eliminate
D) continued to experience class conflict and was ruled by a monarch.

Answer 1

The correct answer is letter A).

The French Revolution put an end to the monarchy and completely changed the social and political structure of France. It also took political power from the Catholic church, ended feudalism, abolished slavery and promoted the rights of women. The ideas and reforms that emerged from this period continued to influence Europe. Even though the revolution ended with the rise of Napoleon those new ideas helped shape other European governments.
