Best Answer

The establishment of peace with the Catholic Church was one of the first things that Napoleon straightened out after rising to power. Though Napoleon had no personal religious faith, he recognized the importance of acknowledging religions in order to maintain his power. In 1801 he made an agreement with the pope recognizing Catholicism as the religion of majority in France at that time. In return the pope agreed not to ask for the return of the church lands seized in the revolution.
