The correct response is: **inspired revolutions against mother nations and the establishment of independent governments.**

The ideas of the Enlightenment, such as individual rights, liberty, and the social contract, played a significant role in influencing the colonies in the Americas. They fueled revolutionary sentiments that led to independence movements in North, Central, and South America, notably seen in the American Revolution, the Haitian Revolution, and various independence movements across Latin America.
