The Napoleonic civil code is surely the greatest example but he also created the Bank of France to finance private investments. He was also the one who set up schools in France as he cared for young people to receive an education and training. He also created the cadastre so that everyone knew who owned what."3- "At the level of life in society, he has left an important legacy, which is also something we talk about this in the exhibition."4.- "The question is not easy since you are asking me to choose between 300 original objects of great value. Perhaps one of the most important pieces is the sword of his consecration, the imperial sword, which was made expressly for the ceremony of his consecration".
