Congratulatiopns. You have come up with a completely unanswerable question. I can think of no moment in Napoleon's life or career when he had English support. No. Not one. Sorry.

With the exception of course of:

When he was supported Lock, Stock and Barrell by the UK.Napoleon spent six years as a detainee/prisoner/exile under full control of the UK at St. Helena in the South Atlantic. During that period an allowance was granted for the housing, foodstuff, security, staff, medical needs, retinue and other necessities deemed essential for a visiting head of state. Longwood was a South Atlantic estate and a far cry from Devil's Island or Alcatraz. His movement was restricted on the assumption that he was a flight risk based on his Parole Violation at Elba.

The French supported Napoleon as an emblematic symbol of their country due to his consistent and tireless efforts in the defense of the Republic of France, such as his brilliant recapture of Toulon from French traitors and British occupiers during the First French Revolutionary War. He was successful leading the French "Army of Italy". He also had none of the bloody legacy that came from the political battles between Gironidists and Jacobins that had led to the Reign of Terror, conversely he brought peace to the city of Paris after its convulsions following the death of Maximilien Robespierre. He was also young and vivacious, which was another reason he was successful.

Most importantly, though, he spoke the language of the Revolution, abolishing the estates, promoting individual freedoms, and elevating the bourgeoisie to the same place in the economy as the nobility. Since Napoleon was not of royal blood, his rule was an affirmation of the principle that all Frenchmen, regardless of origin should be permitted to have any rank they could achieve on their own merit.

Did the third estsate like napoleon?

I do think the correct question would be: did the French people like Napoleon? The answer is positive. Especially after the the Peace of Lunéville (Feb. 8,1801) and that of Amiens (Oct. 1,1801 the preliminaries, March 1802 the Treaty), Napoleon was acclaimed "Consul for Life" and people called him "Peacemaker".


Why did the people of France give napoleon a second chance after his first exile?

The main controversy over Napoleon is if he was a friend or enemy to the French people. Napoleon's prosecutors said that he destroyed the civil liberties of the French people. They also think that he started unnecessary wars of aggression. Another argument is that he ruled above the law like a absolute monarch. People on the defending side of Napoleon say that he saved France from a near anarchic situation in France. He extended the French territory to bring glory to the French people, and the rights of the revolution to the in Europe. Also Napoleon did more to help the people than to harm them.


What were the bad qualities of Napoleon Bonaparte that would place him in the hall of shame?

Napoleon of France made a lot of contributions. Frequent war at the expense of the French people did a lot of harm, because his ambition has led to the coalition of many European countries.
