Napoleon's name is not Napoleon.
Napoleon's real name is NapoleonediBuonaparte. When Napoleon was born, Corsica became a French dependency for only one year, but it was enough to change the course of history. Buna Palthe's family is a descendant of Corsican aristocrats. Napoleon Jr. was born in Casabuna Palthe and became a family mansion as early as17th century. At the age of 20, Napoleon had the idea of joining the army, so he changed his name to Napoléon Bonaparte, which sounded more like French. But even so, the rest of his life is still closely connected with Corsica, which is declining and old-fashioned. Thanks to the British, Napoleon was nicknamed "Little Corsican" and "Dictator from Corsica".

Napoleon was not born good at tactics.
Napoleon did not become a military genius as soon as he joined the army. He also needs training. At the age of nine, Napoleon entered a religious school in France to study French. Later, Napoleon studied at the Brina Military Academy for five years, and then continued to study at the Paris Military Academy. After Napoleon's father died, his family fell into poverty. In order to save money, Napoleon succeeded in shortening the two-year course to one year. He was also the first Corsican to graduate from the Military Academy.
Napoleon was an active nationalist, but not for France.
From 1789 to 1793, although Napoleon served as an officer in the French army, he supported the Corsican Revolution to get rid of French rule. All this is complicated, because the French Revolution took place in 1789. On the other hand, the struggle around Corsica was divided into three forces, namely French aristocrats, revolutionaries and Corsican nationalists headed by jacobins, and jacobins was supported by Napoleon. He even came to France with his family, devoted himself to the revolutionary cause and launched a riot against the French army. Of course, this happened before he disagreed with a leader in Corsica. Napoleon wrote in 1789, "My hometown where I was born and raised is declining, but 30,000 French people are poisoning our seashore and annihilating our freedom with blood waves."
Napoleon was young when he became famous.
Napoleon's army grew rapidly. In 795, Napoleon led a team to defeat the reactionary forces and save the French government. To this end, he was appointed as the garrison commander and military adviser. Napoleon was 26 years old. The following year, Napoleon was promoted to commander-in-chief of the Italian army in France. This title is somewhat misleading, because this unit does not belong to Italy or any occupied area. Napoleon quickly skipped the second stage, because he won an extremely important battle, that is 1920 Battle of Hasburg, Austria. Because of this victory, Napoleon won a high prestige in France, and his prestige is increasing day by day. He founded two newspapers and even planned the first coup in 1979, with the aim of eliminating the remnants of royalists in the government.
Napoleon's height was exaggerated by the British. six
During the reign of Napoleon, the unit of length measurement in France was called "piedsduroi", that is, "the steps of the king". To put it bluntly, the length of this step is calculated according to the size of the king's feet at that time. According to this calculation method, Napoleon's height is 5.6 king's size, which is only 5 feet 3.5 inches when converted into British standard measurement unit. However, the average height of the French is 5 feet 3 inches, and Napoleon's height is a little higher than average! But don't worry about the truth. It's just that the British deliberately exaggerate the propaganda and ridicule this little guy. Who makes him always angry that he has been cheated by senior officials?

6. Napoleon's death is a mystery
182 1 once the news of Napoleon's death came out, two different "camps" appeared. One view is that Napoleon may have been poisoned by the arsenic of Count Montoren. Their statement has also been confirmed by relevant reports. Napoleon's body was intact when 1840 was transferred.
As we all know, arsenic is a preservative. Experts also detected arsenic in his hair, but all the results still can't determine Napoleon's death. Napoleon did have arsenic poison similar to rat poison in his body, but at that time, the plague was prevalent on St. Serena Island, and he escaped easily. The other side believed the autopsy report, which was signed by as many as seven doctors who cared for Napoleon. The autopsy report pointed out that Napoleon died of stomach cancer. Napoleon's family history also supports this statement. Napoleon's grandfather, father, brother Lv Xian and three sisters all died of stomach cancer on 1920. Before Napoleon died, his weight also dropped sharply.
Napoleon once wrote a love novel.
This short story is based on a true love story between Napoleon himself and Eugenia Clary. The novel tells that during the French Revolution, a brave officer who was tired of war met and fell in love with Ogini in the novel in a public bath. After leaving the army, Christine married Eugénie, raised several children and lived a carefree life like a wild crane in the country. But when the war broke out again, Christine felt obligated to serve her country, so he returned to the battlefield.
Unfortunately, Christine was injured in the battle. A comrade-in-arms who reported on peace in Eugénie had a secret relationship with Eugénie, so Eugénie stopped writing to Christine. Broken-hearted Christine wrote her last letter to her unfaithful wife and lover and died in the battle. The real DsireEugnie later became the queen of Norway and Sweden, because her husband, a French general, later succeeded to the throne of Sweden. Of course, this is another story. This novel is so humorous that it reminds people of the harsh general Napoleon.
Napoleon introduced hieroglyphs to the world.
Napoleon's expedition to Egypt made the world discover the world-famous Rosetta Stone. The three inscriptions on the stone helped linguists finally solve the mystery of hieroglyphics and paved the way for the study of modern ancient Egypt. However, Napoleon was not so lucky. 180 1 year, the British returned to Egypt.
Menu, a French general, used his sacred logic to declare the Rosetta Stone as his private property so that he could take it back to France. But the British finally took the stone, because, as you know, they were the winners of the war. But if Napoleon hadn't invaded Egypt, no French soldier would have found this interesting stone in fortress Rosetta.

9. Napoleon's touch can cure diseases
Napoleon once visited soldiers who were trapped in a city in Syria and suffered from plague. There are rumors that he ordered the poisoning of these soldiers, and Napoleon's visit is also to dispel rumors. Yes, there were rumors at that time that Napoleon poisoned his own army, but there is no need to prove this stupid conspiracy theory. Visiting soldiers in Napoleon's hospital is not only to prove his innocence, but also to appease the soldiers. You see, the chief came to see you at the risk of catching the plague, which proved that the plague was not so terrible. Later, Napoleon ordered a huge portrait to be drawn for this condolence. The photo shows him comforting a sick soldier. It seems that this royal touch has healing power. It is obviously no coincidence that this painting first appeared in 1804, when Napoleon proclaimed himself emperor.
Napoleon likes cats.
Napoleon was not afraid of cats at all. On the contrary, his nephew Charles Louis Napolé on Bonaparte suffers from cat phobia. Napoléon Bonaparte, like many Europeans at that time, was superstitious and believed that black cats represented bad luck. But he was not afraid of cats, and even kept a cat named Ben during his exile in St. Helena. According to Napoleon's entourage, Ben and Napoleon admired each other and they often stayed together. So you should know that the greatest conqueror in history is not only a romantic novelist, but also a cat lover.
Who would have thought that Napoleon, who had always been strict, would have so many different faces? In fact, as long as everyone has their own emotions, they will do things that are irrational to ordinary people, but they really like. Only in this way can people be enriched and leave a more complete image.
