Napoleons Early years
Napoleon was an exellent administrator, which created a strong central government, he revised and organized the French laws into a collection of codes. He had control of the police system, forign policy, domestic affairs, It also talks about his downfall and how he really hyperextended his power because he was taking over to much land and not enough people to stay and guard it and this caused problems by nationalism, and French troops attacking towns because of poor economic times
Napoleon had asked to be buried "on the banks of the Seine, among the French people I have loved so much." He really liked France and their way of life so he really wanted to be buried with the country he loved.
