Detailed explanation-1: -French emperor Napoleon Bonaparte increased nationalistic tendencies both at home and abroad. In France, he unified the law with the 1804 Napoleonic Code and boosted morale through military victories. His enemies abroad strengthened their own national unity as they worked to fight Napoleon or chafed at their defeat.
Detailed explanation-2: -Following the defeat of Napoleon in 1815, European governments were driven by a spirit of conservatism. Conservatives believed that established, traditional institutions of state and society-like the monarchy, the Church, social hierarchies, property and the family-should be preserved.
Detailed explanation-3: -The concept of Nationalism emerged in the French Revolution and was spread to the rest of Europe by Napoleon’s conquests. Nationalism was used by Napoleon to make France a great power in Europe. Nationalism helped France to develop a national language which was taught in schools to replace local dialects.
