Why was Napoleon Bonaparte feared by the people?
It would require quite an explanation to fully understand why the hereditary rulers of Europe did not like Napoleon, but some of the major reasons are:The French Revolution. Napoleon, in many ways, was the embodiment of the French Revolution. His reforms in law, education and economy were based on models of the Revolution. Also, the ideals of liberty, equality, fraternity didn't appeal to the European monarchs at that time. While Britain was a constitutional monarchy, the government was still very much elitism in structure.Britain lost to another republic: the US. British political resolve stiffened after they were defeated by the French-backed Americans in their war of independance. Now we have another upstart republic in Europe, Britain's playground. They might have yielded once, but they'd be damned if they yield again!

How did Napoleon Bonapart come to power?
When the Reign of Terror came to a cease at the end of the French Revolution, the National Convention came together and agreed upon a new and more conservative constitution in 1795. It granted suffrage to all adult male citizens who could read and write. However, it also set up indirect elections: citizens voted for electors who then chose the legislative body. Wealthy citizens thus had more power. The Convention really wanted to avoid a personal dictatorship, so it put executive authority in the hands of a board of five men known as the Directory, chosen by the legislative body. Although the Directory lasted longer than its revolutionary predecessors, it still faced a lot of discontent. The radical left was angered by the Directory's repression of radical movements. The first free elections were held in France in 1797, and a lot of monarchists were returned to the councils of government. This alarmed many people so, backed by the army, the Directory annulled most of the election results. After two years of more uprisings and purges, the Directors grew desperate and called on the young general Napoleon Bonaparte. This was where Bonaparte first emerged on the scene. Bonaparte's first military victory came in 1793 when he recaptured Toulon from royalist and British forces. He was promoted from captain to brigadier general at the mere age of 24. In October 1795, he saved the convention from attack by opponents of the new constitution. He won multiple victories in Italy and attempted to attack British forces in Egypt and the Near East. The land part went alright, but the French Fleet was defeated by Admiral Horatio Nelson. At this point, the Directory called Bonaparte back. Bonaparte participated in a coup d'etat with the leading Director (the Abbe Sieyes) and was declared "temporary consul" on November 9, 1799. This was how Napoleon first came to power. From a chain of military victories and an alliance with the French Directory, Napoleon came to rule.
