The French Revolution and the Napoleonic Era fundamentally transformed France by abolishing the monarchy, establishing a republic, and promoting principles of liberty, equality, and fraternity. The rise of Napoleon led to significant legal reforms, including the Napoleonic Code, which influenced legal systems in various countries.
