Answer 3

i think the offer came from “the people.”

Answer 4

Based on my home encyclopedia...

" The Prussian king Friedrich Wilhelm IV refused to accept the office of emperor when it was offered to him on the grounds that such a constitution and such an offer were an abridgment of the rights of the princes of the individual German states."

Answer 5

@kewlgeek555 u mean C

Answer 6

Hm. I know that when it says "such an offer were an abridgment of the rights of the princes of the individual German states." it is basically saying that the offer was a reducement of rights to the rpinces of the individula German states. So the Prussian King thought that the princes would have less rights is he accepted the offer. Now that I am looking into it, I am thinking D, but not 100% sure...

Answer 7

if he accepted*
