It depends entirely on your point of view. I am British, to me Napoleon is a hero, despite his opposition to my country. He is a great leader. A great general, perhaps the greatest of modern times. But of course the British at the time will label him as a Tyrant....
I do believe that would be Napoleon Bonaparte.
Napoleon Bonaparte became the Emperor of the French after the Revolution of 1789. In fact before that he had to become a General & then manoever his way to power. Once he proclaimed himself first consul for life & the Emperor he became de facto head of state & the Napoleonic dynasty was established. He has a golden age of military domination in Europe and is one of Historys great commanders, defeating all the continental armies that oppose him. (Austria, Russia & Prussia primarily) Eventually time catches up with the great man & he meets his Waterloo in 1815.
For a relatively small man, he was larger then life. He had a feel for pomp and tradition as seen in his coronation attire.
On 5 October 1795 Napoleon killed 1,400 Royalists with the fabled whiff of grapeshot which gained him fame, prestige, wealth and advancement, He was a made man for his exemplary conduct in defense of the Directory and a Marked Man by Royalist assassins.
The short man syndrom. The Napoleon complex is a colloquial term describing an alleged type of inferiority complex which is said to affect some people who are physically short. The term is also used more generally to describe people who are driven by a perceived handicap to overcompensate in other aspects of their lives. This term is also known as Napoleon syndrome, Short Man syndrome, and Small Man syndrome. The Napoleon complex is named after French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte. The conventional wisdom is that Napoleon overcompensated for his short height by seeking power, war and conquest.

Napoleon Bonaparte died May 5th, 1821 on his island St. Helena here he'd been banished from polite society after becoming the latest, but hardly the last, little man attempting to prove his worth on the world and historians believed his quick timed death was from a blater infection for several years
'France, l'armée, tête d'armée, Josephine'which translates to : "France, the Army, Head of the Army, Josephine." A nice set of priorities. (But then, Napoleon was a man driven to be France's greatest military leader.)
