d under one ruler who is responsible for the well being of his
             people, thus appealing to a nationalistic sense of pride. Emperor of France
             alienates the ruler from his people creating a feeling of inferiority.
             The Napoleonic wars were in them a unifying factor as well. Because
             Napoleon was at war with the majority of Europe, a sense of the "French
             verses Europe" was created. This ideology unified the French through great
             national pride, and, at the same time, unified the other nations of Europe
             The fact that so many nations eventually fell under French control creates

             majority of the European people tended to be classified under the latter;
             however, some individuals did opt, or were forced by conscription, to join
             the French army. Due to this fact, Napoleon was able to construct armies
             that rivaled any other armies seen prior to that time. In Napoleon's
             Russian Campaign, Napoleon was said to have entered Russia with an army of
             "20 nations and 12 languages". The total number of troops was around
             650,000 men. (Godechot et al 193) It is clear that this was an important
             change in warfare in European history. Such large troops changed both the
             preparation and fighting style during warfare.
             With such large armies it was necessary for the troops to be well trained
             so as authority could be more easily obtained. The organization of such
             large armies marks a major accomplishment of the Napoleonic period. A great
             nation with military patriotism greatly aided in the formation of such large
             military forces. This patriotism was greatly assisted by the use of
             conscription in the French military. "Between 1793 and 1798 the new regime
             moved over to conscription justified by revolutionary universalism and the
             new ideology of nationalism"(Black #1 202). The...
