a. Role of France.

Explanation:

France allied England against the Spanish in March 1657 through the signing of the Treaty of Paris, becoming a key participant in the conflict. On the other hand, during 1792 French revolutionaries wished for war because they saw it as a way to unify the country while also promoting their ideas of the Revolution in the entire European continent. This is why they declared war on Astria.

atman means 'eternal self'. the atman refers to the real self beyond ego or false self. it is often referred to as 'spirit' or 'soul' and indicates our true self or essence which underlies our existence.

there are many interesting perspectives on the self in hinduism ranging from the self as eternal servant of god to the self as being identified with god. the understanding of the self as eternal supports the idea of reincarnation in that the same eternal being can inhabit temporary bodies.

the idea of atman entails the idea of the self as a spiritual rather than material being and thus there is a strong dimension of hinduism which emphasises detachment from the material world and promotes practices such as asceticism. thus it could be said that in this world, a spiritual being, the atman, has a human experience rather than a human being having a spiritual experience.
