Through a telescope. Sorry, I'm being deliberately unhelpful. Lol to the above ! Actually you are probably right, in a way, because I think he distanced himself from it, he saw it as a means to assert his own requirements in the achievement of power. Singlemindedness is what Napoleon was all about and the idea of la Liberte et al was not part of what he was achieving, no, that was military domination for the glory of the French Empire. The disorganisation of the state was exactly what Napoleon wanted to build from in his pursuit of power, a timely distraction which he took advantage of to the full.
Napoleon liked the French Revolution very much because he knew that the monarchy would no longer exist and that he could become a more important person. Also, because he was good with people, he knew that he could convince the population to vote him as their emperor.
He is seen as an almost god-like part of History by a few.
As an error in judgment by a very small minority.
Like the more modern Charles de Gaulle as a flawed symbol of a great nation by the vast majority.
He used the ideas of the Revolution to further his own ends.
Napoleon wasn't against the revolution. He fought for it
He believed it was time to end it and to bring some order into the lives of the French.
The Monarchy was ended, he was arrested and convicted and then executed.

The french were angry at there leaders in 1789 through the end of the french revolution, so they killed their leaders. This made them look bad to the european nations around them so they attacked and the only person to defend them was Napolean Bonaparte.
Because Napoleon was a brilliant general who successfully defended the French Revolution from foreign monarchists, his troops became very loyal to him and therefore he had the power to assume the position of Emperor of France.

With Napoleons' Consulate coup against the French Directory in 1799.

Well done and deserving of active US military support.
The third estate, made up of peasants, artisans and workers, which was 97% of the population, were those who benefited from the French Revolution. In particular the Bourgeoisie, a section of the third estate who were relatively wealthy, such as bankers, lawyers, doctors and other similar professions, benefited the most from the French Revolution because the Revolution put them in power. The first and the second estates, meaning the clergy and nobility, were the groups that lost the most from the French Revolution. They would not recover their pre-Revolution position until the Congress of Vienna of 1815 reinstated the French monarchy.
it didnt. the American revolution happened before the french revolution
As a result of the Congress of Vienna, France lost all the territories seized during the Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars and was restricted to the borders of 1789.
