How did Napoleon Bonapart die?

Answer 1

Napoleon Bonaparte died of stomach cancer

Many believe that Napoleon did not die of stomach cancer, but indeed died from Arsenic poisoning. It was believed that he had been murdered by one whom he regarded as "faithful of the faithful", Comte de Montholon. Comte de Montholon was the head of the household. The Longwood House, which was located on a tiny remote volcanic island of St. Helena in the South Atlantic, where Napoleon established himself when he was exiled after the Battle of Waterloo. After his death, it was found that in the lock of his hairs, there were small traces of Arsenic. It has also been found that Arsenic poisoning was a way of "silently" murdering someone back in the Middle Ages because it was very hard to find the traces of Arsenic after death. The reason why is because giving someone small amounts of Arsenic over a period of time can ultimately lead to death. Some of the members in the household had kept locks of his hair, which was were the arsenic was found.

He also died on the island of St. Helena

Answer 2:On the initial examination of his body after death, it was generally agreed amongst the seven doctors and several others, that Napoleon had probably died of tumors and ulcers on the stomach.

However, not everyone agreed on all aspects of the examination and recently tests on some strands of Napoleon's hair have shown the presence of segments of arsenic. The evidence seems to suggest that Napoleon periodically received the poison.

The arsenic would have weakened Napoleon, with the effect of Napoleon simply appearing to be getting worn down by the climate. At the right moment the poisoner could have administered other substances that would have become toxic and then killed Napoleon.

This method of poisoning was common for the time and the autopsy results showed conditions that could lead to this conclusion.

Even so, we will never be completely sure if Napoleon was poisoned, although it does seem as though the evidence is stacked that way.
He died from stomach cancer in May of 1821.
He died of stomach cancer in 1821.
