Hint: The peasant riots that took place in France in July and August 1789 was called The Great Fear. The economic situation as well as panic that prevailed in the rural area were responsible for these riots. In the spring of 1789, France experienced a critical situation since France witnessed a food crisis.

Complete answer:
In the French Revolution, the period of panic and riot that was done by peasants and others is considered as Great Fear. There were rumours of aristocratic conspiracy by the ruler. In order to check the peasants, the national constituent assembly declared the abolition of the feudal regime and it led to the introduction of Declaration of the Rights of Man and of Citizens.
In the countryside rumours about the royalist of the manor that they hired bands of brigands. There was fear in peasants that brigands will destroy their ripe crops. In fear, peasants in different districts seized their hoes and pitchforks and attacked chateaux. The nobles in fear fled to neighbouring countries.
Amiens and Nantes are regarded as epicenters of the Great Fear. There were few regions in France that were not affected by Great Fear which are Brest, Bordeaux, Toulouse, Alsace, Lorraine
In the map, the region not affected by great fear are:
A. Brest
B. Toulouse
C. Louhans

Note:The Great Fear took place since rumours spread on the countryside that brigands hired by manor are going to destroy the ripe crops. In fear the peasants seized their hoes and pitchforks. The regions that were not affected by Great Fear in the map are Brest, Louhans and Toulouse.
