Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
In 1789, the monarchy's authority was transferred to a group of French citizens through political and constitutional reforms brought about by the French Revolution. The French Revolution declared that the people would make up the country and choose its course. To foster a sense of nationalism among the people, the French revolutionaries introduced the ideas of la Patrie and le citoyen right from the start. The French word for the fatherland is la Patrie. The concepts of la Patrie and le citoyen or the citizen strongly emphasised the idea of a single community with equal rights protected by a constitution.
Hence, la patrie signified the Fatherland and le citoyen signified the citizen.
