What might have caused the French people to embrace Napoleon as Emperor so soon after fighting a revolution that rid them of a king?

Well, they didn't exactly embrace him. After the Revolution, France was left in total chaos. Nobody knew how thecountry should be governed and by who, since the French had killed the entire Royal family because they wanted to rid themselves of the monarchical system in their country. They did not think it very well through, because they only knew what they didn't want, but not what they did want. Napoleon took advantage of this weak position France was in, and committed a coup. He crowned himself as Emperor and took control. The French were highly sceptical about him, but he did lead France back to being a great nation. At that time he was exactly what France needed.

Why did the french leave France?

The French Revolution was a time of political and social upheaval in France that lasted from 1789 until 1799. The Revolution resulted in the overthrow of the monarchy, and the establishment of the French Republic. It also led to the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte, who would rule France for the next decade. The Revolution was caused by a number of factors, including the financial problems of the French government, the high cost of living, and the unfair treatment of the lower classes by the aristocracy. These issues came to a head in 1789, when the people of France began to take action. The first step in the Revolution was the storming of the Bastille, a fortress in Paris that was used as a prison. This event, which took place on July 14, 1789, is now considered the start of the Revolution. Over the next few years, the people of France would continue to fight for their rights, culminating in the adoption of the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen in 1789. This document guaranteed equality for all men, regardless of their social class. In 1792, France would go to war with a number of European countries, including Austria and Prussia. These wars would drain the resources of the French government, and would ultimately lead to the downfall of the monarchy. In 1799, Napoleon Bonaparte would take control of the French government, and would rule as a dictator. Napoleon would lead France to a number of military successes, but would ultimately be defeated in 1815 at the Battle of Waterloo. After Napoleon's defeat, the people of France would once again overthrow the government, and establish the French Second Republic. This Republic would last until 1852, when Napoleon's nephew, Louis Napoleon, would take power and establish the French Second Empire.
