The "Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen" was composed in 1789, early in the French Revolution, and became the basis for a nation of free individuals protected equally by law; it is still current, and remains the basis for the French Republic.
Inspired by the ideals of the American Revolution, it was drafted mostly by Lafayette, with the help of Thomas Jefferson and his drafts of the American Declaration of Independence (more than a decade earlier), which in turn were inspired by the "Virginia Declaration of Rights", drafted by George Mason in May 1776, as well as the works of john Locke and other philosophers, as well as the English "Bill of Rights" (a century earlier, in 1689).
