Napoleon

Napoleon was considered one of the greatest and youngest generals of all time.

When he was younger he'd been enrolled into a military school - a career choice

that was perfect for him. Napoleon conquered many countries, making himself well

known in Europe. Many people from conquered countries idolized him and eventually

joined his army, making his enemies into allies. By doing that he had accomplished

peace with others nation, such as Russia, and many other European countries.

Napoleon reign over Europe had both negative and positive effects, however it is by bringing

an end to the feudal structure that dominated European society for centuries that he achieved

such an enduring legacy. Making him one of the most greatest generals, because of his

accomplishments.

Although he ended the feudal structure, by enforcing the civil code also known as the

"Napoleonic code", woman lost rights under this code. Napoleon thought women were

inferior to men, even though they had played a critical role during the French revolution,

his views over women and men were very discriminatory. Napoleon had broken many

promises to Spain and others countries, because he wanted them to stay loyal to him.

He had promised them freedom, power, control over there own countries. He had known

that if he gave them false hope they would be loyal and fight with him to the end, and

that they would do whatever they had to do or there freedom. The broken promises had

made Spain have constant warfare with France, because of Napoleon treachery.

He made many schools, and university for everyone, which made many people very educated,

and because they were educated they could pursue a career of there choice. He had ended

corruption throughout Europe and made peace with many nations. Many of his enemies, had soon

became allies which proved very effective when need of enforcement against other nations.

Napoleon did not write the laws, but made sure that they reflected the kind of society he wanted.

One of his greatest achievements was the civil code, which had given men equality under the law, the

right to hold property, freedom of religion, and the freedom to pursue work of one's choice. Many

European's countries still base their laws on this code.
