Detailed explanation-1: -After four years of debate and planning, French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte enacts a new legal framework for France, known as the “Napoleonic Code.” The civil code gave post-revolutionary France its first coherent set of laws concerning property, colonial affairs, the family and individual rights.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Napoleonic Code is also called the ‘French Civil Code of 1804’ defined the concept of equality before the law and also secured the right to property. This code was generated to simplify all the laws and systematized into a single document. This Code was spread to the regions under French control.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Civil Code of 1804 usually known as the Napoleonic Code did away with all privileges based on birth, established equality before the law and secured the right to property.
Detailed explanation-4: -Napoleon’s goal was to reform the archaic and hopelessly confusing French legal system, first by doing away with the thousands of feudal laws-all based on local customs-that governed the many regions and localities that France comprised at the turn of the 19th century.
