Answer:

It saw a significant rise in global political equality and human rights.

Step-by-step explanation:

Despite development imbalances between countries and regions of the world, we can say that our modern era is more egalitarian and democratic than it was before the 1780s. Human rights, civic freedoms, free elections of authorities and a free press are rights millions of people in the world enjoy, all those rights are enshrined in national constitutions, violations of human rights and freedoms are denounced and critized in the global media and are a motive of concern worldwide.
