What were the issues addressed by the National Assembly in their Constitution of 1791?
What will be an ideal response?
Answers will vary. The Constitution discarded the old estates and orders, declaring France to be a single nation, uniting all people who resided permanently on French soil. Sovereignty now resided in the nation, no longer in the king. Ability, not birth, was to determine success and status. National Assembly abolished all titles of nobility, created bureaucratic reform in the form of departments, established the metric system, and set standards for citizenship.
