The correct answer is: "the Enlightenment and the French Revolution".

The Enlightenment movement emerged in Europe in the 18th century and it was constituted by philosophers that promoted Reason and the scientific method over medieval superstition and religious dogmas, and the establishment of democratic societies where the power resided on its people, and not in absolute monarchs or rulers "appointed by God". These principles triggered revolutions in many European countries, being the French Revolution the most important of them and the new states that emerged, enacted bills of civil rights for the first time in history and implemented principles such as the division of powers or the social contract, through which citizens elected their governors by suffrage.

Such Enlightment principles were transferred to the colonies in America, where the population claimed for political representation rather than being governed by foreigners that were appointed by a foreign king. Such claims were ignored and the colonies, influenced by the new democratic principles, started several revolutionary movements for independence aiming to establish new independent states based on the Enlightenment principles like in Europe.
