The correct answer for this question would be the third option. In 1801, when napoleon signed an agreement called the Concordat with Pope Pius VII, the effect of the agreement is that, the church was able to function without persecution from the government. The Church agreed to give up their claim to the lost lands. The principle of religious freedom which the revolution had guaranteed remained in effect.
