      Differentiate between active and passive citizens of France.

    Answer:

                      In France, only men above 25 years of age who paid taxes equal to at least 3 days of a labourer's wage were given the status of active citizen. They were entitled to vote. The remaining men as well as women who were not entitled to vote were called passive citizens. At that time to qualify as an elector and a member of the assembly, a man had to belong to the highest bracket to taxpayers.
