The Age of Napoleon

He knew that most French people are Catholics, so in order to maintain their loyalty, the church tried to live peace with the church because he lost power and land during the revolution.

The government has appointed clergy and continues to pay wages, but the church has the power to confirm or refuse these appointments. For that part, the Church abandoned the idea of ​​taking land from there during the revolution. Napoleon gave up a little power to the church, but his Concordat was welcomed by French Catholics.

He paid "promises by words" about the ideals of revolution, but violated its most important political principles.

3. - Weary (French have experienced so many painful changes during the decade of revolution, many people welcome 'strong' which can bring some stability.)

The principle that all citizens are equal under the law guarantees that France will not return to the "legacy system"

The law carefully protects property rights (remember that this is one of the 'natural rights' of John Locke).

I do not know if the church has won more victories with the agreement, but both sides are pleased to end the hostility at this point. Concordat contains wordings that recognize the "special status" of the Catholic Church in French culture and history (which is not much practical for the church, but many French Catholics I will make you happy)

There is an endless quest for the nature of Napoleonic power. But rationality proves that the Napoleonic era was indeed an era of democratic rule. Through political, social and economic reforms, Napoleon Bonaparte transcended France, but also changed the historical process of today's Europe and the world. From the beginning Napoleon proved to be a democratic leader in many political reforms. From 1798 to 1999, Napoleon began his Egyptian expedition under the blessing of the catalog. It was a military disaster, but Napoleon came to France as a hero and rescued France from the second league.

In the beginning of 1804, Napoleon proposed a suspension of the Constitution, replaced the Empire that imitated Charlemagne and the French Republic. Later this year, on December 2, 35-year-old Napoleon will officially crown as a European emperor. Pope Pius VIII was invited to Paris to attend the ceremony, but Napoleon insisted on putting the crown on his head. By doing so, he overturned an uninterrupted habit dating back to another December day, where Pope Leo III crowned Emperor Charlemagne Holy Roman without doubt.

dictator. Napoleon was born in a noble family in 1769 and showed interest in the military since childhood. In 1785 Napoleon began becoming the lieutenant of the French cannon. Napoleon did not succeed in fighting for the independence of Corsica, but he returned to France and was regarded as a patriot. Napoleon led the French army in Italy and won the victory in 1796 and 1797. His next campaign, Egypt failed, before Napoleon succeeded back to France before his truth became clear, his reputation was not affected.
