Question

What were the reactions of the local population to the french rule in conquered territories?

Answer 1

There's nothing quite like opening the door and breathing fresh, clean, air—but how clean is the air you're breathing right now? Unless you're a scientist with a chemistry lab at your fingertips, there's no real way of knowing. The gases you're sucking up through your nose could be slowly killing you: according to the World Health Organization, around two millionpeople die prematurely from the effects of polluted air every single year. Air pollution is a huge problem—and not just for people living in smog-choked cities: through such things as global warming and damage to the ozone layer, it has the potential to affect us all. So what exactly causes this major environmentalissue and what can we do about it? Let's take a closer look!

Answer 2

REACTION OF THE PEOPLE OF THE CONQUERED TERRITORIES—

• In the areas conquered, the reactions of the local populations to the french rule were mixed.            
• Initially in many places such as Holland and Switzerland, as well as in certain cities like Brussels, Mainz, Milan, and Warsaw, the French armies were welcomed as harbingers of liberty.
• But the initial enthusiasm soon turned into hostility as it became clear that administrative arrangements did not go hand in hand with freedom.
• Increased taxation, censorship, forced conscription into French armies reqired to conquer the rest of Europe, all seemed to outweigh the advantages of the administrative changes
