What impact did Napoleon Bonaparte have on the Catholic Church in the 19th century?
In 1797, the Pope was forced by the French army's arrival in Rome to abandon claim to large areas of papal territory and was taken captive to France. Napoleon negotiated terms with the Pope, in the Concordat of 1801, and returned the papal states to the new Pope. In exchange, Pius VII annulled all the sees in France and cancelled the appointments of all incumbent bishops. New bishoprics were created and bishops were to be appointed by the Pope, with the First Consul to have right of veto. Likewise, the State was to be permitted to veto the appointment of lower clergy by the bishops. Some 'old' bishops refused to abandon their sees and were excommunicated.
