Napoleon's connection to the French Revolution is odd. He was a general in the French Army when it began, and was actually against the revolution. It disgusted him to see French fighting French, a sentiment he carried throughout his life. He actually did not support until the late stages, and took control during the new government that sprouted up near the end of the Revolution. His seize of power was a peaceful coup d'etat [the 18 Brumaire coup], in which he was assisted by his brother Lucien and which he used to set himself up as the First Consul.
