The napoleonic code required that family property a. be divided among sons and daughters b. be given to the eldest son c. be given to the state d. be given to the youngest son

The correct answer is A.

Napoleon Bonaparte published the Civil Code of France in 1804, in which many of the ideas of the Revolution had been examined and corrected. With respect to successions, equality of inheritance law was established for all children equally.

Article 745 of the code states that children inherit in the first degree to their parents, mothers, grandparents, without distinction of sex or birthright, and even if they arise from different marriages will be equal successors.
