The Enlightenment ideals that inspired so many world revolutions were Option A, Option B, and Option D.

Explanation:

The idea of a social contract was fundamental to Enlightenment ideals of government. Thomas Hobbes philosophies' were foundational to this principle. He believed that the natural state of man was chaos and that we enter into social contracts in order to organize a civil society. Natural rights are those that are not dependent on any particular set of laws or government; they are universal and inalienable.  John Locke is most famous for his conception of natural rights which are perfect equality and freedom, as well as the right to preserve one's life and property. These Enlightenment ideals led to the overthrow of many monarchies where authority came from divine right and the rise of democratic and republican forms of government that were chosen by the people to be governed throughout Europe and the Americas.
