Many military historians point to the Battle of Gettysburg to be an attempt by Confederate General Robert E. Lee's to win a decisive victory over the Union that could be described as one that resembled a Napoleonic era type victory.

The Napoleonic codes were an attempt to settle all verbal and unwritten laws in a larger, fixed set of laws. That had the effect of unifying the regional rules into a national one, and to make the law clearer for judges and the population; these codes formed the basis for the Civil or the Criminal codes in France and in many countries in Europe, and had a lot of influence on the set of laws in the former French colonies.
