During the 19th century, peoples (and leaders) throughout Europe resisted Napoleon's efforts to build an empire for a variety of reasons. Most importantly, peoples around Europe were becoming increasingly proud of their home-nations and wished to maintain national integrity and independence. Just as important, the oppressive policies of Napoleonic rule were soon obvious to all -- and were quite sensibly feared and also resisted.
