Answer:

c.The leaders of the Haitian Revolution came from a different social classes than did the leaders of the French revolution

Explanation:

While the French revolution had the idea of a better life for all people, including the low classed people who differed from unemployment and hunger, the leaders weren’t those from the low class. All of the prominent names that are associated with leading the French revolution (Maximilien Robespierre, Marquis de Lafayette, Jacques Pierre Brissot, Georges Danton, etc.) were educated people, scholars, sometimes coming from the higher classes.

However, the Haitian revolution was mostly led by low-class people, most of whom were ex-slaves. Toussaint Louverture, the general who is thought to be the most prominent leader of the revolution, was born into a slave family, have not been formally educated, and was a worker prior to his time in the military.
