Quizplus · Accepted Answer

On August 4, 1789, the French National Assembly broke with the past by abolishing the last remnants of feudalism. This was a significant step towards the elimination of old privileges and the establishment of equal rights for all citizens. However, the monarchy was not abolished until September 21, 1792, and the declaration of the First French Republic did not occur until September 22, 1792. Therefore, choices B and D are incorrect. The call for the people of Paris to march on Versailles occurred on October 5-6, 1789, making choice C incorrect. Although the French Revolution did eventually lead to the abolition of slavery, this did not occur until February 4, 1794, making choice E incorrect.
