	Bush’s Napoleon Complex
		Napoleon thought that the Spanish would roll over and play dead as so many other European states had; he thought marching to Madrid and placing his brother Joseph on the throne would complete the subjugation of Spain.
		Napoleon certainly expected to get a lot of revenue from Spain, and although the U.S. government denies it, I have to think that we would have had trouble staying interested in Iraq if it had nothing but sand.
		But Napoleon was probably beginning to suffer from megalomania: he had succeeded to such a tremendous extent that perhaps all things seemed possible.

	Britain.tv Wikipedia - Napoleon
		Napoleon was wholly ignorant of nautical matters, his orders to his admirals were often contradictory or useless, and the fleet of rafts he had prepared would have sunk in the Channel, or taken at least three days to transport his army, even if the crossing were unopposed.
		Napoleon was finally defeated by the Duke of Wellington and Gebhard Leberecht von BlÃ¼cher at Waterloo in present-day Belgium on 18 June 1815.
		Napoleon was imprisoned and then exiled by the British to the island of Saint Helena (2,800 km off the Bight of Guinea in the South Atlantic Ocean) from 15 October 1815.

		Marie Louise's first meeting with Napoleon was one of the many recreations that we set out to shoot for David Grubin's "Napoleon." The location was Compiegne, a big and imposing palace, but rather graceless after shooting in places like Malmaison and Fontainebleu.
		Napoleon choose Compiegne because it was the only palace he could take his new bride to where Josephine had not lived.
		Napoleon's own son said while living in Vienna in 1820,'If Josephine had been my mother, I would be in Paris and my father would not be rotting on St. Helena.' It's fruitless to speculate what could have been if some detail or other could be changed.

	Metaphilm - Napoleon Dynamite
		Like Napoleon, the “noble savage” is a person by definition divested of the corrosive effects of conformity and consequently motivated by a self-interest completely different than the one that competes for higher rungs on civilization’s social ladder.
		Napoleon, utterly abandoned by his peers, exists in a parallel adolescence and eventually returns to confront them with an alternative to their own system.
		Napoleon and his brother are virtually abandoned, cripplingly unaware of their own shortcomings, and doomed to share in the meager social and economic cycles of their small town.

		The school inspector reported that Napoleon's aptitude for mathematics would make him suitable for the navy, but eventually it was decided that he should try for the artillery, where advancement by merit and mathematical skill was much more open...
		The possibility of [Napoleon] knowing enough geometry for this feat is as questionable as the possibility of his knowing enough English to compose the famous palindrome, ABLE WAS I ERE I SAW ELBA.

	Amazon.com: Napoleon: A Political Life: Books: Steven Englund (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-21)
		The author rightly stresses Napoleon's complex, nettlesome entanglement with the ideals and consequences of the French Revolution, which "framed his consciousness and his conscience." It had profoundly altered the relationship between the citizen and the state; elections, parties, ideologies and representatives replaced old ties and feudal ways; mass politics was born.
		It is complex: Napoleon was a vain man who lusted for military glory and who ultimately failed because he refused to compromise at key points in his reign.
		Napoleon: A Political Life might exclude the word 'political' from its title and be just as fitting, for Englund spends a great deal of time on Napoleon's relations with Josephine, his brothers, the exiles, etc..

	Napoleon Bonaparte - Uncyclopedia
		Napoleon was born in 1756 on the island of Corsica.
		Napoleon's ascent was helped by the fact that most of the people who outranked him found themselves beheaded during the Reign of Terror.
		But in the end, Napoleon had to accept defeat, as the vast majority of his army eventually reverted to the pansiness that the French military had been known for in days of yore and started whining and complaining about things getting frozen in the cold, including their wine, their cheese, their baguettes, and their limbs.

		The final outcome of the game is a combination of skill and a bit of luck, not unlike the situation faced by Napoleon and Wellington.

		Russian maximalist Sergei Bondarchuk followed his previous Napoleonic-era epic, WAR AND PEACE (1968), with this equally ambitious account of Bonaparte's disastrous final stand on the Belgian plains.
		The explosive Rod Steiger delivers a moody and mannered Method-inspired interpretation of Napoleon, while Christopher Plummer effectively holds his own as Wellington, the erstwhile Emperor's imperturbable British nemesis.
		Bondarchuk's trademark attention to detail—in costume, decor, manners and mores—imbues the film with a remarkable degree of authenticity.

	Napoleon I of France - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		He formally adopted her son Eugène and cousin Stéphanie after assuming the throne to arrange "dynastic" marriages for them.
		And it was all such a great waste, for when the self-proclaimed tête d'armée was done, France's "losses were permanent" and she "began to slip from her position as the leading power in Europe to second-class status—that was Bonaparte's true legacy."
		In addition to this miscalculation, his nickname le petit caporal adds to the confusion, as non-francophones mistakenly take petit as literally meaning "small"; in fact, it is an affectionate term reflecting on his camaraderie with ordinary soldiers (for example, "petit ami" means "boyfriend" in French, "petite amie" means "girlfriend").

		Napoleon also relieved the Middle East he "conquered" in 1798 of a bunch of neat obelisks now centering ritzy Paris boulevards and some very nice art and antiquities now sitting in the Louvre—looting and pillaging being that "messy" democratic element even then.

		Granted, I haven't seen the original, but I'm willing to assume Napoleon was more coherent in full and in French, the native language of English-challenged star Christian Clavier.
		It also no doubt played better in France, where the audience is familiar enough with the intricacies of French history to fill in any gaps in the narrative.
		To be fair, Napoleon doesn't give him much chance to build a character as it rushes from place to place, year to year, and person to barely identified person.
