Why did opposition to Napoleon’s rule increase?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because of taxes, censorship and forced conscription
The governing concept is that a ruler may introduce useful reforms while still provoking resistance through coercive policies. Napoleon’s administration spread uniform laws and ended some feudal privileges, but people also faced heavier taxation, censorship, and compulsory military service. These burdens increased opposition, so option A is correct. The other choices either contradict the historical situation or exaggerate it inaccurately.
