(i) Peasants, artisans, workers and businessmen enjoyed this newly found freedom. (ii) They realized that Uniform laws and standardized weights and measures and a common national currency would be more helpful in a trade as it would facilitate the movement and exchange of goods and capital from one region to another. (iii) Increase in taxes, censorship and forced conscription in French armies were seen as outweighing the advantage of administrative changes which Napoleon brought.

  • IN the areas conquered by the Napoleon, the reactions of the local populations to French rule were mixed.
  • Initially in many places such as Holland and Switzerland as well as in certain cities like Brussels, Mainz, Milan and Warsaw, the French army were welcomed.
  • But the initial enthusiasm soon turned to hostility, as it became clear that the new administrative arrangements go hand in hand with political freedom.
  • Increased taxation, censorship, forced conscription into the French armies required to conquer the rest of Europe.
