Solution

The correct option is A Free
The word "Liberalism" has been derived from the Latin word, "Liber", which means ‘free’. In the political sphere, Liberalism stood for the end of autocracy and clerical privileges, and rooted for a government based on the consent of the people. Liberalism also claimed the importance of inviolability of private property and was strongly associated with individual freedom and equality before the law.
