Oh, dear Heaven, no. Napoleon becoming Emperor put a temporary stop to the Revolution. First, there was the old Régime. The people weren't happy with that and blamed all their problems on the royal family, whom they killed, this period is called the French Revolution and started in 1789. This was followed by a constitution called the Directorate, which was replaced by another called the Consulate. Napoleon became Consul, then First Consul, and eventually commited a coup (in 1799) crowning himself emperor and thus turning France into an Empire. When Napoleon was defeated, the Old Régime was restored, then Napoleon came back and restored the Empire. Then out he went again, and the Old Régime lasted until 1830, when it was replaced by a constitutional monarchy under a different dynasty. In 1848 another revolution founded the Second Republic. The President of this restored the Empire under himself as Napoleon III, and lasted until 1870, when the Third Republic chased him out. That lasted until 1940 and the Vichy régime, and when that was defeated in 1945 a new constitution installed the Fourth Republic. That was dissolved in 1968 and the Fifth Republic came in, and so far has lasted. Since 1789 France has had 23 constitutions. So we know the Revolution started in 1789, and ended in 1799. Napoleon ended the revolution. If, indeed, it has ended. The point is, 'The French Revolution' is a misleading term. There have been many. What Napoleon ended was simply the first attempt at a Republic.
19th Century.
He became the Emperor of France in 1804.
He was first named the First Consul for life. When that plateau had been reached it was a relatively easy step to advance himself to the rank of Emperor of the French. He made a failed but valiant effort to become the Emperor of Europe. That course of action failed.
It was the Government of France following the end of the Terror and of the rule of Robbespierre's Committee of Public Safety. It consisted of five Directors, each with a given area of responsibility. It was finally overthrown by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1799.
In 1799 he became the First Consul of the Executive Government of the First French Republic. On 2 August 1802 a national referendum was held that gave him the title of First Consul for Life. He was no longer bound to a 10 year term of office. His reforms were in place and France prospered. His opposition from within the Army were sent to San Domingo to put down the slave revolt and the unhappy royalists were exiled when he exposed them for plotting against his leadership. On 18 May 1804 the Senate passed a Bill introducing the French Empire with Napoleon as Emperor. On 2 December 1804 Napoleon Bonaparte crowned himself Emperor of the French.
napoleon was known for his political dominance in europe. Napoleon became famous because of his striking advances in europe. He died from his penis being chopped off when he was tortured by the english. His last words were France.
It is unclear the exact motives that Napoleon had in mind as regards the lands that would eventually become the Louisiana Purchase, but he was envisioning creating a North American Empire, so he was likely going to use the position to attack Spanish Texas and British Canada.

I would like to point out that correct title of Napoleon the Great was "Emperor of the French" and not "Emperor of France". He wasn't the only Emperor to rule the French but the first one. The second and last one was his nephew and heir Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte (1808-1873). After a coup d'état he become Napoleon III Emperor of the French, from 1852 to 1870.
Napoleon became premier consul of France in November of 1799 (Brumaire Year VIII) and became Emperor on March 20th, 1804 when he crowned himself
