Napoleon caused revolutions in Latin America indirectly. His overthrow of the Spanish monarchy in Spain led to the Spanish-controlled colonies being ruled by Napoleon's brother Joseph as part of the French Empire. The colonists, especially the criollos, were already questioning whether the Spanish had the right to govern them or whether they should assert independence. However, most colonists could agree that there was no way that France had any right to govern them. Additionally, Spain's defeat by France meant that Spain could not expend as many soldiers and strength to repress any revolutions there. This made it an ideal time for a revolt.

However, Napoleon did not support or directly influence any of the three major Latin American revolutionaries (Bolivar, San Martin, and Padre Hidalgo).
