Napoleon Bonaparte is credited with ending the French Revolution and, with the establishment of a stable government, bringing security and equality to France. He introduced a system of meritocracy to replace the older system that privileged inheritance and status. Napoleon also introduced the Napoleonic Code to the world. He based it off of Justinian's Code, or Roman law.
