Answer:

Napoleon began to consider selling Louisiana to the United States after the revolt.

Step-by-step explanation:

First option is correct as Napoleon was engaged in war in Europe and couldn't not focus on the overseas territory. After losing Saint Domingue he released that selling Louisiana is the best move, as he has no means of controlling it.

Second option is not correct as Napoleon could not send soldiers to fight outside Europe. He needed them there.

Third option is not correct as revolt was successful.

Last option is not correct as there was no rebellion in Louisiana.
