How did Napoleon Bonaparte hurt the French Revolution?
I'm a Napoleon supporter so I have more good to say about him than bad ha. However, Napoleon in many ways went against the ideals of the Revolution. Firstly, the French Revolution fought for democracy but Napoleon was a dictator. Secondly, one other ideal of the French Revolution is to have checks and balances within the government but Napoleon made almost all the political decisions on his own. Overall, Napoleon's style of government was closer to absolutism which was a big no-no of the French Revolution.
How was Napoleon Bonaparte able to turnover the monarchy?
He didn't. Napoleon was in no way instrumental in making the Revolution happen, not in terms of leadership at least. He benefits from it greatly, he fills the power vacuum. But he was not the primemover in the Revolution, although the 'Whiff of Grapeshot' is attributed to him. Napoleon simply replaced one dynasty, the Bourbons, with his own family & friends. And in the most part he does this by his own force of personality, his strength of leadership, his own ambition. It does bear saying the ideals of Liberty, Fraternity & Equality have absolutely nothing to do with Napoleon. Those of you familiar with my frequent adulation of the great man will be unsurprised to see me say that military genius does ! Vive L'Empreur !
Did Napoleon Bonaparte own slaves?
When he gained power over the French in the late 18'th century he legislated slavery in the San Domenic's once again. The revolutionary leader Maximilien Robespierre had set them free during the early years of the revolution.
