Answer 2

The ideology under which people demanded freedom of markets in early-nineteenth-century Europe is B. Liberalism

Explanation:

• Liberalism was propagated as a major ideology in the early nineteenth century that advocated for individual liberty and equality before the law for the new middle classes. It entails the right to equality before the law.
• The aristocracy was abolished, as were ecclesiastical privileges. It meant that Parliament would be the vehicle for representative governance.

• Therefore, the answer is B. Liberalism as Free Market was the core ideal alternative to a state-owned market.
