Legendary emperor, clearly.  The facts speak for themselves really.

Not sure if this is allowed or not, so if it isn't one of the mods can delete it:
 
I visit Simaqian history forum from time to time (haven't posted there yet, just read the threads) and came across a thread on Napoleon that asks if he was a villian or hero.  There were some wonderful contributions there and thought I would bring it to the awareness of our members here.  If you do look through it be sure to pay particular attention to the posts by the member UberCryxic and debate between that member and the british chap allsirgarnet.  There is some intense debating between the two but the debate is a perfect illustration of the pro-napoleon side versus the british anti-napoleon view.  (no offence to our british members of course)Smile  UberCryxic gives a lot of great information; if you couldn't tell I am of a similar opinion as he with regards to Napoleon.
 
 
If anyone there takes offence to this, my sincerest apologies.

In my opinion Napoleans ideas where very good and very similar to what we have today however his opinion that he needed to impress them on everyone else was egotistic and costly and resulted in hundreds of thousands of deaths it could be likened to Hitler some good policies i.e. reduction of unemployment and beniftis systems but some very bad ones ie. Holocaust, but will always be renembered for trying to force thier ideas on others
 
For this reason despite his brilliant ideas he will always be quite deseridly be renembered as a tyrant who let himself become bigger than his ideas, and saught a place in History rather than the benifit of humanity i.e. the hordenus treatment of Spainish partisan fighter due theNapoleonic period with death of of men woman and children, when it was obvious Spain was not receptive to his ideas, anyone who santions this kind of behaviour cannot be considered great or anything close to it it would be like calling Satlin or Hitler great
