The event that had the greatest impact on Napoleon's rise to power was the Coup of 18 Brumaire in 1799, which effectively ended the French Revolution's political instability. This coup allowed Napoleon to overthrow the Directory and establish the Consulate, positioning himself as First Consul. His military successes and ability to navigate the political landscape further solidified his control, ultimately leading to his declaration as Emperor in 1804.

Napoleon's words in the official version of the coup present a narrative of heroism and necessity, framing his actions as a means to restore order and stability to France.
