    C. the purpose of the Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen

    Explanation:

    The French Revolution was a social and political conflict, with various periods of violence, which convulsed France and, by extension of its implications, other nations of Europe that faced supporters and opponents of the system known as the Old Regime. It began with the self-proclamation of the Third State as a National Assembly in 1789 and ended with the coup d'état of Napoleon Bonaparte in 1799.

    Although, after the First Republic fell after the coup d'état of Napoleon Bonaparte, the political organization of France during the nineteenth century oscillated between republic, empire and constitutional monarchy, the truth is that the revolution marked the final end of feudalism and of absolutism in that country, and gave birth to a new regime where the bourgeoisie, supported sometimes by the popular masses, became the dominant political force in the country. The revolution undermined the foundations of the monarchical system as such, beyond its death throes, to the extent that it overthrew it with a discourse and initiatives capable of rendering it illegitimate.

    According to classical historiography, the French Revolution marks the beginning of the Contemporary Age by laying the foundations of modern democracy, which places it at the heart of the 19th century. It opened new political horizons based on the principle of popular sovereignty, which will be the engine of the revolutions of 1830, 1848 and 1871.
