Why were Napoleon Bonaparte so important in the battle of Trafalgar?

You wouldn't think, would you, that an Emperor who was a an Army commander could have much influence on a sea battle? The French and Spamish fleets were safely ensconsed in Cadiz harbour. The British fleet was waiting outside. The French Admiral, Villeneuve, very sensibly refused to come out and fight. Napoleon, who had absolutely no understanding of sea warfare, ordered Villeneuve to attack the Brits. After all, he had them outnunbered. When Villeneuve temporized, Napoleon sent him a message: a) I am the Emperor, and I'm ordering you. b) If you refuse, I will replace you in command. c) Your replacement is already on his way. Villeneuve brought the fleet out, and was duly annihilated. Napoleon's chance of invading England was permanently destroyed. He went off and beat the Austrians instead. Back to basics: Trafalgar was one of the battles that England fought with France (and Spain in that case) because Napoleon wanted to rule Europe and England didn't want him to do so. Thus every battle in those times (called the Napoleonic Wars), whether on land or sea, had Naploeon at its heart.
