Solution

The major political and constitutional change that was the offshoots of the French Revolution, led to the shifting of sovereignty from the monarchy to an organization of French citizens.
Other changes included:
  • The ideas of la patrie and le citoyen for a united society enjoying equivalent rights with a constitution
  • A fresh French flag, replacing the former royal standard
  • The Estates General that was renamed the National Assembly.
  • Creation of new hymns, oath taking, tribute of martyrs
  • A centralised organizational system formulating standardized laws for all citizens within its territory
  • Elimination of internal customs duties and dues
  • Implementation of standardized system of weights and measures
  • Discontinuation of regional dialects and making French, like that of Paris, the common language of the nation
