Question

what document, inspired by the american declaration of independence, outlined the rights of french citizens and limited the powers of the king?
○ the civil constitution of the clergy
○ the tennis court oath
○ the declaration of the rights of man and the citizen
○ the constitution of 1791

Explanation:

This document was crafted during the French Revolution, drawing inspiration from the American Declaration of Independence. It explicitly laid out fundamental rights for French citizens and established limits on the absolute authority of the French monarch. The other options do not fit: the Civil Constitution of the Clergy restructured the French church, the Tennis Court Oath was a pledge by revolutionaries to create a constitution, and the Constitution of 1791 was the formal constitution that followed the Declaration, not the direct rights-focused document inspired by the American example.

Answer:

The Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen
