Explanation:

Question 2

The Atlantic revolutions (like American, French, Haitian) were influenced by Enlightenment ideas. The social contract theory (e.g., Rousseau, Locke) posited that governments exist with consent of the governed, a key idea for revolting against unjust rule. Abolishing inhumane punishments and universal suffrage were less central to all Atlantic revolutions. The "give up rights for safety" misinterprets social contract (it's about mutual obligation, not surrendering rights). So the social contract idea was most influential.

• Option 1: The French Revolution led to King Louis XVI's execution, while other Atlantic revolutions (e.g., American) didn't execute their monarch (British king remained, American revolution was against British rule, not executing a domestic king; Haitian revolution was against slavery/colonial rule, no king execution).
• Option 2: Other Atlantic revolutions (e.g., American) didn't achieve widespread social equality (slavery, gender inequality persisted).
• Option 3: Slavery was abolished in Haiti (another Atlantic revolution) earlier and as a direct result of its revolution, while France's abolition was more complex and not unique to it.
• Option 4: The French Revolution had periods of unrest (e.g., Reign of Terror, later upheavals), and other revolutions also had unrest (e.g., American post - revolution issues, Haitian post - revolution). So the execution of the king is a key difference.

Answer:

The existence of a social contract between citizens and their government
