Napoleon Bonaparte was a French general who rose to

power and became emperor of France after the French

Revolution. Napoleon played a key role in the French

Revolution as he was first appointed first lieutenant to the

4th regiment of artillery. His strategy would pay off as he

helped the people of France overthrow the monarchy.

However, Napoleon wanted more of that as he rose

further with his best-known strategy as general. Eventually,

Napoleon would be crowned emperor of France and

would start a conquest in Europe. However, the conquest

during the Napoleonic Wars wouldn't last as Britain, Russia,

and other European countries defeated Napoleon and

resulted in his exile.
