Was Napoleon Bonaparte the Saviour or the Destroyer of the Ideals of the French Revolution? :: European Europe History

Was short sleep Bonaparte the Saviour or the Destroyer of the Ideals of the French transition?With all told the glory and the splendour that some countries may have experienced, neer has history seen how only only one man, Napoleon, brought up his country, France, from its close tormented status, to the truly pinnacle of its height in just a few years time. He was a military hero who won splendid land-based battles, which allowed him to dominate most of the European continent. He was a man with ambition, great self-control and calculation, a great strategist, a genius whatever it was, he was simply the best. But, even though how great this person was, something about how he governed France still floats among peoples minds. Did he abuse his power? Did Napoleon defeat the purpose of the ideals of the French Revolution? After all of his success in his military campaigns, did he gratify the peoples needs regarding their ideals on the French Revolution? This is one of the many contr oversies that we have to deal with when studying Napoleon and the French Revolution. In this essay, I will discuss my opinion on whether or not was he a destroyer of the ideals of the French Revolution. Certain individuals authorize of Napoleons reign as the saviour of France. He finished and completed the Revolution by fulfilling the ideals the people of France demanded. A person such as one be to the bourgeoisie, or even a peasant would be very satisfied with the way Napoleon ruled over the country. He gave them equality, freedom, justice, and many rights. Such things never existed during the reign of the monarchs before Napoleon stepped in. A banker too would be very affirmative on how Napoleon had truly helped France in its economic problems. He make the franc the most stable currency in Europe, and the banker had witnessed that, as probably one of the bankers of the Bank of France. Another type of individual that agrees that Napoleon isnt the destroyer of the ideals of the Re volution would be his soldiers and generals. He had fought alongside with his men in many battles. Through inspiration, he gained their loyalty, to follow him to the stars if he asked them to. Such inspiration would never be gained if he never respected them, if he never treated them fairly. And then, the Legion of Honour, which awarded to some certain citizens for their civil and military achievements.
