Explanation:
In 1796 a new governing body, the Directory, made Napoleon the commander of the French army in Italy, which was then fighting the Austrians and their allies. The Italian campaign showed Napoleon’s military genius. He bewildered his enemies with his rapid movements, and he eventually carried the war into Austria itself and had advanced to within 80 miles of Vienna when the enemy surrendered. He concluded the Treaty of Campo Formio, which gave France more territory. After a failed invasion of Egypt, he returned to France, where the political situation had become unstable. The Directory had lost its popularity among the people, and Napoleon saw an opportunity for self-advancement. In November 1799, he joined in a coup that overthrew the Directory. In its place, a government called the Consulate was set up and had Napoleon as the first of the three consuls.
Within three years, Napoleon was made first consul for life. He instituted reforms in post-revolutionary France, starting with a complete overhaul of military training. <u>He also centralized the government, reorganized the banking and educational systems, supported the arts, and improved relations between France and the pope.</u> His most significant achievement was the Napoleonic Code, which streamlined the French legal system. Continued political opposition from royalists and others soon convinced Napoleon that the best way to discourage conspiracies against him would be to transform the life consulate into a hereditary empire. On May 18, 1804, the French empire was proclaimed, and Napoleon was consecrated emperor of France by Pope Pius VII in the Notre Dame Cathedral on December 2.

It lost interest in progressive causes.
Before and during World War I, many people who were progressive supported the war. Woodrow Wilson, who was the president of the United States at the time, made it seem like World War I was the "war of all wars" and it would end violence around the world. This seems very contradicting, but progressives believed in what he was saying along with other citizens. All of this caused progressivism to fall after World War I, as people started to realize the cruelty and death that happened during the war and associated being progressive with wanting war.

It wanted to return to a normal lifestyle.
After World War I was over, many American citizens just wanted to return to a normal lifestyle. World War I came with many casualties, hardships, and cost the United States a lot of money. Many people were tired and wanted to return back to normal and wanted to avoid another huge conflict. This caused the debate if whether or not the United States should back away from foreign affairs and even try to ignore them.

It was very concerned with the question of isolationism or internationalism.
Although some people in the United States wanted to back away from foreign affairs, isolationism and internationalism was always a question. Isolationism is the act of ignoring and not getting involved in foreign affairs and wars, even if a friendly foreign country needed help. Some people wanted this, as they didn't want anymore American casualties and debt and wanted to always remain in a normal and comfortable lifestyle. Internationalism is the exact opposite and is the act of getting involved in everything important in outside affairs and occurrences. Many people argued that this was correct, as it was important that America evolved with the country to exert and bring peace and prevent wrong doings, harmful ideologies and some countries from becoming too powerful.
