• B. Circulation of new ideas in Europe.
• C. Emergence of three political strands.
• D. Radicals opposed the existence of private properties.

Answer 1

The correct option is D Radicals opposed the existence of private properties.

After the French Revolution, the estate-based divisions were abolished and people started to discuss new ideas such as liberty, equality, and democratic rights. Powerful ideas of freedom and equality started to circulate in Europe and Asia. There were three different political strands - the Liberals, the Radicals, and the Conservatives. The radicals were not against the existence of private properties, but strongly disliked the concentration of property within the hands of a few.
