Answer 1

Answer: One outcome of the Continental System that Napoleon put in place was that it led to the French invasion of Russia. The Continental System was a policy implemented by Napoleon in an attempt to isolate Britain economically by preventing European nations from trading with Britain. Russia, however, refused to participate in the Continental System, and this led to the French invasion of Russia in 1812.
