Napoleon III was a descendant of Napolen I, who was the general who successfully defended the French Revolution from other European monarchies who tried to overthrow it on the grounds that republicanism would set a bad precedent in their own countries. While there is a certain hypocrisy in Napoleon's actions, there is no doubt that he was a brilliant general, and such people acquire loyal followers who forgive them their hypocrisy.
Because Napoleon was a brilliant general who successfully defended the French Revolution from foreign monarchists, his troops became very loyal to him and therefore he had the power to assume the position of Emperor of France.
France was completely destroyed after the revolution. None of the other European countries wanted anything to do with the violent French anymore and since the French had killed their monarchs (and about 30.000 others), and as the revolution backfired also a lot of revolutionaries, France had become rudderless and was one huge chaos. Napoleon Bonaparte took advantage, and committed a coupe, making himself the controller of France and turning it into an Empire by crowning himself emperor. France had been desperate for someone to step up with a plan how to save this bankrupt and blood drenched country, and Napoleon was the man to do it. France was exhausted of fighting and all the blood and executions. The French had to admit that their revolution was no success and they had lost all credibility to the outside world. They needed a hero and found one brave enough to take the job.
The English revolution led to Cromwell, the Russian to Lenin, the French to Napoleon. The fact that this did not happen in America is wholly exceptional, and probably due to the fact that there were 13 independent colonies, and 13 dictators were not available.
He never did accept the crown of Emperor or King. He did, however, name himself "dictator perpetuo," or dictator for life.

There were three rulers of the name Napoleon. Napoleon I, the original French Emperor, was defeated at Waterloo in 1815 and exiled to the isle of St. Helena off the coast of Africa. In 1821 the Emperor's health began to fail, and British doctors were called to the island that May. They could not find the cause of his illness and could only prescribe painkillers. Napoleon died on May 5, 1821. An autopsy found that the cause of death was stomach cancer. Although conspiracy theories said that he could have been killed through arsenic poisoning, modern analysts generally accept the stomach cancer hypothesis. Napoleon II, son of Napoleon I, had a much more straightforward death. He died of tuberculosis at Schonbrunn Palace in Vienna, Austria, on July 22, 1832. Napoleon III, nephew of Napoleon I, died as the result of kidney failure brought on by the distress of an overlarge bladder stone. Although the theory is without proof, it has long been suspected that the Emperor actually died as the result of incompetence on the part of his physician.
There was no Francis II Holy Roman Emperor. The last Holy Roman Emperor was Francis I of Habsburg end 18th early 19th century, father of Napoleons 2nd wife, Marie Louise and mother of his son, Napoleon II. He resigned as Holy Roman Emporer to accept the crown of Hungaro-Austrian Emporer.

Most accept his cause of death as stomach cancer.
Both Napoleon and Snowball want to create a revolution that will free the farm animals from the farmer. Napoleon is content to only free the Manor and create his own fiefdom, where Snowball wants to free every farm.
