Answer: Because it showed that change is possible
Explanation/context:
The medieval era had been one in which the Roman Catholic Church dominated the culture of Europe, and it was thought that no one could successfully challenge such a deeply ingrained institution. However, the Reformation movement by Martin Luther and other Protestant figures showed that even something as entrenched and enduring at the Catholic Church could be challenged, and changes could be accomplished. Even during Martin Luther's lifetime, this idea that change was possible motivated people to launch efforts toward other major changes to powerful systems. The Peasants Revolt that occurred in Germany in 1524-1525 took Luther's push for reform in the church and applied it to make a push for change in feudal society. Martin Luther himself didn't agree with that and opposed the Peasants Revolt, but as Schaff points out, the momentum of the Reformation was a "propelling force" inspiring other "forward movements" to make changes in society.

Answer:
The correct answer is C. The influence of the Enlightenment on Napoleon is most clearly seen in his code which made all men equal under the laws.
Explanation:
The Napoleonic Code is a large-scale codification of civil law that gave a powerful impetus to the subsequent codification process in many countries of the world. It was developed and adopted at the beginning of the 19th century on the initiative of the first consul of the French Republic, Napoleon Bonaparte, and operates with changes and additions up to the present day.
The Code rejected the existing class differences and privileges and served as one of the foundations for the formation of a new bourgeois society, fixing in its norms the secularization of family relations, equality of participants in civil turnover, inviolability of private property, freedom to conclude civil law contracts and, at the same time, patriarchal views on marriage and family.
