Where did the colonists get the idea that only male land owners should vote?
DochEvi [55]
The colonists and early Americans got the idea that only male land owners should vote from England. Voting in England during pre-1832 was dependent on three criteria – sex, age and property. Only men over the age of 21 were allowed to vote – and only if they owned property over a certain value. It was essentially a way of making voting a rich man’s privilege, reinforced by small boroughs having more MPs than larger counties, which were predominantly inhabited by poorer workers. The Great Reform Act in 1832 broadened the spectrum of voters to include the likes of landowners and shopkeepers as part of the property criteria. The constituency boundaries were rearranged to make representation less unfair and householders paying more than £10 in annual rent were also given the vote

How did nationalism aid Napoleons rise to power in France
butalik [34]
He was able to use this drive to let him have the power over France. It was just like when the Church used religion to make citizens follow their orders and justify their actions. 

 \Napoleon used the Napoleonic Code, his creation, to unite the people and overthrow the monarchy in France. They finally felt that they have liberty, fraternity, and equality on their hands. He was able to stir the feelings of Nationalism. In addition to this, he also made several successful battles during the French Revolution. The unity of the people made them become a strong force in Europe. Napoleon was a symbol of Nationalism which eventually supported him to have the power.
