The overall goal of the Napoleonic Code is to reform French law in line with the principles of the Revolution. Even before the revolution, there are a lot of policies that the French has been following. The Napoleonic Code was inspired by Bavaria’s Civil legal system, The Codex Maximilianeus Bavaricus Civilis.
