Answer 1

Syria's literacy rate is about 80%.

I'm sure that's much higher than the literacy rate of France before the revolution.

Answer 2

Do you know how much it was in France approximately? Do you think there is a source that can help me? :(

Answer 3

As you can see from this Illiteracy graph, about half of the French people were literate in 1790.
