He may sell it, alienate and pledge it without the concurrence [agreement] of his wife. Read these excerpts from the Napoleonic Code. Which statement best summarizes this set of laws? The Napoleonic Code gave men and women equality under the law. The Napoleonic Code took away civil rights in France. The Napoleonic Code denied rights to almost all citizens of France. The Napoleonic Code gave husbands greater freedom than wives.

Hi!

Your answer is the last option, "The Napoleonic Code gave husbands greater freedom than wives." All throughout the excerpts, there are things like obedience required from the wives and then men are allowed to do whatever they want, even if the wife and husband own it - in other words, they don't have to ask permission from their wives!

Ex: "He may sell it, alienate and pledge it without the concurrence [agreement] of his wife."

Ex: "...the wife obedience to her husband."

Ex: "The husband alone administers the property of the community."

Hope this helps!
