First and foremost is of course the Napoleonic Code, which forms the basis of most of modern day Europe’s legal code, as well as the places where Europeans colonised.
Second, Napoleon spread the French Revolution across Europe. Although defeated militarily, the reforms Napoleon spread never really went away. Feudalism left Europe. Absolute monarchism became a relic of the past.
Third, Nationalism. Nationalism begins in France, and utilised to great effect by Napoleon. This too spreads, and the results are profound. Old empires broke away, new ones were created, and two world wars follow.
Fourth, Russia becomes an integral part of European diplomacy. Before, Russia was an outsider, but the 1812 invasion of Russia and Russia’s participation in defeating Napoleon in 1813 and 1814 brought Russia and Europe closer together, and the effects on Russia were unexpected. Many young Russians became quite disillusioned with Russia when they returned from Western Europe, and this played a role in ending Tsarist Russia.
Fifth, the end of the Holy Roman Empire. The Millennium old HRE finally saw its end by Napoleon’s hand. This led to the rise of Prussia and along with point three the creation of Germany as a unified nation-state.
Sixth, the Pax Britannica. Napoleon’s defeat paved the way for nearly 100 years of British control of the high seas and Britain becoming the first true global superpower.
