Answer:

Freedom, natural rights, and self determination.

Explanation:

An Enlightenment philosopher the influenced the revolutions was John Locke. John Locke had the idea of natural rights, where all men are born equal.

Another idea he had was that the government could and should be overthrown if its people are "unsatisfied". John Locke's idea of natural rights influenced a lot of major revolutions in history.
