Under the Continental System imposed by Napoleon, Great Britain was denied access to mainland European markets. Napoleon aimed to weaken Britain's economy by prohibiting trade with European nations, thus isolating it from continental commerce. This policy ultimately led to widespread smuggling and economic strain in both Britain and Europe. The system was part of Napoleon's broader strategy to establish French dominance in Europe.
The coalition warfare against Napoleon directly undermined the Continental System by fostering widespread resistance among European nations. As coalitions formed to counter Napoleon's expansion, many countries began to defy the trade restrictions imposed by the Continental System, seeking to restore economic ties with Britain and other nations. This resistance weakened the effectiveness of the system, leading to increased smuggling and ultimately contributing to Napoleon's downfall. The constant military conflicts also drained resources and created political instability, further eroding the system's intended economic isolation of Britain.

That would be a reasonable statement even though some people may disagree.
Causes of the Venezuelan Revolution included that the Venezuelans did not want to pay the taxes imposed upon them by the French, they were opposed to Napoleon's rule in Spain, they didn't approve of the social ladder. The social ladder placed the French at the top and the Venezuelan people at the very bottom.
The colonists were imposed with taxes and laws without their consent.

Napoleon was generally admired by Europe's middle class (although not by their defeated and removed absolute rulers) and French rule in most cases meant modern laws and institutions and the removing of ancient privileges and power.The thing that did lead to resentment towards the French was the imposed Continental System that was meant to bring Britain on its knees economically. Instead, it ran havoc with most European countries' economies and led to harbors being closed and to the resulting massive loss of jobs and income, apart from the resulting scarcity of many goods.

The First Continental Congress was a group of 56 delegates from 12 colonies that assembled at Carpentersâ?? Hall in Philadelphia Pennsylvania. The purpose of their assembly was to make a response concerning the Coercive Acts that were imposed by the British Parliament and aimed to punish Boston for the Boston Tea Party.
The Continental Congress Act, also known as the Continental Association, was passed on October 20, 1774. It was a response to the Intolerable Acts imposed by the British Parliament, and it laid the foundation for colonial unity and resistance against British control. The act called for a boycott of British goods and set up committees to enforce non-importation agreements.
Estimates vary, but it is believed that the total population of the Americas at that time was around 50-100 million people. This number significantly decreased in the centuries following European contact due to disease, warfare, and forced labor imposed by European colonizers.
Yes, the representatives of the First Continental Congress were indeed angry at Britain. They were frustrated by a series of punitive laws and taxes imposed by the British government, which they felt violated their rights as Englishmen. This anger was evident in their discussions and the decisions they made to organize resistance, including the formation of a boycott against British goods and the call for a Second Continental Congress if their grievances were not addressed.
