When Napoleon was beaten for the last time, he tried to plead with the U.S. president to be sent ot Texas to live. It is believed he might have had plans to create a new nation there (Texas at the time was just being colonized by Americans).

NAPOLEON BONAPARTE had plans for an American Empire, but decided against pursuing this when the slave revolt on Haiti removed that island from French control. Being a pragmatist, Napoleon thought it wiser to sell Louisiana to the Americans than try to assuage his losses in Haiti are risk a cash-flow problem.
