    It would seem that this was setting up a multiple choice set of answers, but you didn't provide those choices. So I'll just offer some thoughts on Enlightenment ideas that did produce the Revolution in France.

    When the Revolution broke out, the slogan was "liberty, equality, fraternity." All of those were Enlightenment ideas. The liberty or freedom of each man was considered the natural "rights of man and citizen." Along with that came a desire for equality and fairness in society - - not to have all the wealth and power concentrated at the top (in the king and nobility). The brotherhood (fraternity) of all persons was also hailed as an Enlightenment ideal.

    Ultimately, the Enlightenment was about doing things rationally - - having the courage to use your own reason. So all things that seemed unreasonable about French society and politics were challenged when the Revolution was beginning.
