Further Explanations:

The Concordat of 1801 was an agreement amid “Napoleon” and “Pope Pius VII”, signed on 15th July 1801 and remained ineffective until 1905. It hunted national reconciliation amid mutineers and Catholics and stated the “Roman Catholic Church” as the popular church of France. It restored most of its political status. The significant clause of the Concordat was the declaration that "Catholicism” was the creed of the great majority in France but not the formal state religion and thus maintained the religious freedom with respect to Protestants.

The need for the Concordat was the financial condition of the nation during the era. When the “French Revolution” broke out in 1789 with the purpose to address the financial problems it too created financial stability in the realm. Numerous other wars of the 18th century that involved France compelled the government to spend more funds than it received as revenue.
