The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, neither context nor further references, we can comment on the following.

The Parisians did not get the Democratic State they had hoped for and fought for because after the French Revolution became a time of instability, confusion, and disorder that did not allow for the people to instill the democracy they aspired for and the fought for during the revolution. That is why powerful General Napoleon Bonaparte got to power and became an emperor in France. The instability, inflation, poor economic conditions, too much destruction due to the revolution, a deep debt, and fear, were the steps that conducted to the dictatorship of the new emperor who invested too much time and money in war and conquering other European territories.
