Yes, it is true that “Ideas of liberty and democratic rights were the most important legacy of the French revolution”. After the formation of the constitution of 1791, the Declaration of Rights of Man and Citizen was announced; this gave certain rights like - Right to life, Freedom of speech, Freedom of opinion and equality before the law which was the greatest legacy of the French revolution. When this idea travelled around the world, it led to the abolition of the feudal system. Many colonised countries tried to create a sovereign state by getting inspired by the French revolution. Example – two people inspired from the ideas of the French revolution were Tipu Sultan and Ram Mohan Roy.
