Explanation:

Question 2

Before the French Revolution, France was under an absolute monarchy (often considered with some constitutional developments but primarily absolute), and after, it transitioned to a republican form of government.

The five main causes of the French Revolution are: a. Estate System; b. Financial Crisis (due to war debts and royal extravagance); c. Enlightenment Ideas (spreading ideas of liberty, equality); d. Food Shortages and Economic Hardship; e. Influence of the American Revolution.

Enlightenment thinkers questioned traditional authority (like absolute monarchy and the divine - right of kings), and argued against religious intolerance, feudal privileges, and the lack of individual rights and freedoms. They promoted reason, individualism, and the idea of social contracts for governance.

Answer:

Before the revolution: absolute monarchy (the filled - in "absolute constitutional" might have a typo; the main pre - revolution government was absolute monarchy). After the revolution: republican government.
