Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Napoleon reinstated the Catholic Church to appease his opposition in France. Napoleon had little interest in religion but recognized that returning the Church to France would appeal both to the royalists, who wanted a return of the Bourbon line, and the republicans. For many, the loss of the Church during the Revolution had been devastating, so it was a move that helped Napoleon's popularity, yet cost him very little. The agreement between Napoleon and Rome also gave him a measure of diplomatic credibility.
