They believed he would provide stability & defeat France’s enemies. He was a military genius!

Napoleonic Wars In 10 years Napoleon conquered & ruled most of Europe including Austria, Prussia, Spain, Portugal, and some kingdoms in Italy He spread revolutionary ideas by writing constitutions for the countries he conquered. Failure: invading Russia in the winter European states revolted, invaded France, & restored the monarchy (Louis XVIII) He was exiled (twice!) by the British, eventually dying on the island of Elba
