Napoleon was the general who successfully defended the French Revolution and brought an end to the Bourbon monarchy, and to the aristocratic system by which France had been ruled since the fall of the Roman Empire, and later as Emperor he created a body of law known as the Napoleonic Code, which remains a fundamental part of French law to this day (although of course it has been revised over the centuries).
