Answer 2

The answer is 'king.'

The national assembly framed a constitution in 1791 to limit the power of the king.

• The National Assembly was formed during the French Revolution. It consisted of representatives from about 96% of the nation. Thus, they called themselves the National Assembly.

• They formed a revolutionary assembly and decided to create a constitution that would define the laws relating to matters like taxation. They did this to curb the power of the monarch and take up the power in their hands.

• However, King Louis XVI became angry at their audacity and closed down the building of the National Assembly only two days after its foundation.
