Explanation:

For Question 8: France was a key ally of the American colonists during the American Revolution. They provided military support, supplies, and naval assistance. The Ottoman Empire was not involved in this alliance. Great Britain was the colonial power the colonists were rebelling against. The National Republic of Ireland did not exist in its current form during the American Revolution period.
For Question 9: The Third Estate (commoners) had little political power compared to the clergy (First Estate) and nobility (Second Estate), which was a source of frustration. The tax burden on the Third Estate increased as France had debts from supporting the American Revolution. Napoleon Bonaparte's dictatorship came after the French Revolution. Russian and Austrian kings were more likely to support the French monarchy (as they were fellow monarchs) rather than the revolutionaries.

Answer:

Question 8: C. France
