Napoléon Bonaparte
of the First French Republic
"Born in Corsica and trained in mainland France as an artillery officer, he first rose to prominence as a general of the French Revolution, leading several successful campaigns against the First Coalition and the Second Coalition arrayed against France. In late 1799, Napoleon staged a coup d'état and installed himself as First Consul."
-- Napoléon Bonaparte is the most revered military leader in Europe, and he commands the strongest European Army. His manner, his talent makes him the leader of not only French men, but French hearts.
-- Don't make jokes about his height. You'll regret it when his cavalry are trampling you.
-- Napoléon made Paris. He made style. He made the French what they are today - and that, ultimately, is more stylish than yourself.
-- Bonne chance.
