Peaesents didn't have to pay more taxes after Napoleon took charge. The most concrete results of the French Revolution were probably achieved in 1789-91, when land was freed from customary burdens and the old corporate society was destroyed. This "abolition of feudalism" promoted individualism and egalitarianism but probably retarded the growth of a capitalist economy. Although only prosperous peasants were able to purchase land confiscated from the church and the emigrant nobility, France became increasingly a land of peasant proprietors. The bourgeoisie that acquired social predominance during the Directory and the Consulate was primarily composed of officials and landed proprietors, and although the war enabled some speculators and contractors to make fortunes, it delayed economic development. The great reforms of 1789-91 nevertheless established an enduring administrative and legal system, and much of the revolutionaries' work in humanizing the law itself was subsequently incorporated in the Napoleonic Code. Politically, the revolution was more significant than successful. Since 1789 the French government has been either parliamentary and constitutional or based on the plebiscitary system that Napoleon inherited and developed. Between 1789 and 1799, however, democracy failed. Frequent elections bred apathy, and filling offices by nomination became commonplace even before Napoleon made it systematic. The Jacobins' fraternal--and Jacobin-controlled--community expired in 1794, the direct democracy of the sansculottes was crushed in 1795, and the republic perished in 1804; but as ideals they continued to inspire and embitter French politics and keep right and left, church and state, far apart. The Revolution nevertheless freed the state from the trammels of its medieval past, releasing such unprecedented power that the revolutionaries could defy, and Napoleon conquer, the rest of Europe. Moreover, that power acknowledged no restraint: in 1793 unity was imposed on the nation by the Terror. Europe and the world have ever since been learning what infringements of liberty can issue from the concepts of national sovereignty and the will of the people.
There were lots of medieval queens, and I am sure more than a few had pets. Members of the nobility kept dogs commonly. I would bet they had cats also.
During the Middle Ages, there were many factors contributing to an increased food supply.The development of new agricultural implements increased production. Some important examples were the horse collar, which made it possible for a horse to plow about twice as much land with about the same effort, the horse shoe, which kept horses working closer to full time, and the deep plow, which increased productivity.The introduction of the three field system of crop rotation increased the portion of agricultural land that was in production at any given time, and at the same time increased productivity of the land.The feudal system organized the serfs better than they had been organized in ancient times.New crops were introduced to Europe, mainly from the Middle East and Africa.New types of vegetables were bred. For example, Brussels sprouts are thought to have originated in the 13th century.Breeding improved livestock.Better nutrition, such as by ensuring a good supply of winter feed, made animals stronger and larger.Irrigation was improved from what it had been at the beginning of the Middle Ages. Part of this was due to the introduction of new kinds of pumps.Also, after the beginning of the Middle Ages there were a number of improvements in transportation, making it possible for farmers to move crops farther.
In the early 1800's Bulldogs crossed with terriers were popular. By 1830 combat between Bulldogs and bulls were at the height of their popularity. Lovers of this so called "sport" decided to create a dog that would attack even more agilely. They crossed the Bulldog with the Old English Terrier adding in some Spanish Pointer blood, the result was the Bull Terrier breed. They soon found that the Bull Terriers were not the most successful fighters. In 1860 the white-coated variety, which was nicknamed the "White Cavalier" was bred by a dog dealer named English dog dealer James Hinks and soon became a fashionable pet for nobles. The colored variety of Bull Terriers were created by back crossing them with brindle Staffordshires The breed has been used as a guard, ratter, herder and watchdog. The Miniature was developed to have the same qualities as the Standard Bull Terrier but with a more manageable size. The Standard Bull Terrier was first recognized by the AKC in 1885 and the Miniature Bull Terrier in 1991. While the AKC sees the Standard Bull Terrier and the Miniature Bull Terrier as separate breeds the standard requirements are the same accept for size. Whereas most other clubs see them as different varieties of the same breed or the same breed without placing a variety label. For example the FCI (Federation Cynologique Internationale) has both breeds listed under Bull Terrier separating them by a Standard and Miniature variety. The UCK (United Kennel Club) does not place any height or weight restrictions but does require the dog to be in proportion. The Bull Terrier was recognized by the United Kennel Club in 1948.

most European polecats are captive bred and so no certificate is needed, i have been breeding them as pets for the last few years.
Depends on what it has not been exposed to. Ligers are animals bred in captivity, so it can be afraid of anything that it isn't used to in being in captivity.
The original breed came from Arabia by way of Spain but they are now bred in many countries.
Well many countries have bred dogs of their own, and those dogs would be most popular. But the poodle is very popular in Sweden!
This question is vague but probably refers to the European Rabbit, which was introduced into some areas - most notably Australia - as a farm animal bred for food. The scientific name of the European Rabbit is Oryctolagus cuniculus.
Some do... especially in the cottontail family. Most rabbit breeds are derived from the European Cottontail and can still be bred with them.
Mainly European warmblood types. But I prefer Thoroughbreds myself, or a good Anglo-Arabian, or Irish bred horse.
bred: We bred rabbits for years.The past participle is also bred: We have bred many kinds of rabbits.
No two dogs simply make a collie. They are the result of high drive herding dogs from multiple countries, which were bred many hundreds of years ago. They're an ancient breed that can only continue by being bred collie-to-collie.
They were bred to be lap dogs
It was bred in France
