Napoleon Bonaparte was born on the island on Corsica on August 15, 1769. Corsica was mostly populated by Italians. Napoleons father was part of the local nobility but had little money. Seeing that there was little opportunity for his son to get up in life on that island, he sent him to a French military school in which he was an outcast. Napoleon grew up not speaking French and hating them overall. As part of the jury, I take part in the decision of him being guilty of being a power hungry dictator or of being a ruler of the people and for the people. Napoleon is said to be one of the greatest French leaders of all time. Napoleon created an empire that covered most of Central and Western Europe. He proved himself as a talented administrator, he created the Code Napoleon. The Code Napoleon enclosed seven laws in which incorporated the sanctity of family and some of the freedoms gained by the French during their revolution including religious toleration and the abolition of serfdom.
