Cevap

The radical restructuring of the existing social hierarchy and feudal privileges.
The correct option is the one stating that the French Revolution aimed for a radical restructuring of the existing social hierarchy and feudal privileges. The French National Assembly's decree explicitly abolished feudal rights, serfdom, and noble monopolies on public offices, highlighting the revolution's focus on dismantling the Old Regime. This contrasts with the American Revolution, which was primarily a political break from Great Britain and did not seek to upend domestic social classes or property structures.
