Why is the Napoleonic Code linked with both revolutionary legacy and centralisation of power?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because it gave common laws and organised state power
The governing concept is the dual character of the Napoleonic Code. It preserved revolutionary principles such as legal equality, protection of property, and the end of birth-based privilege. At the same time, one uniform code strengthened administrative control from the central state. Thus option A is correct; the other options contradict the Code’s reforms.
