Let's do a quick Napoleon review incorporating one of the dankest meme formats of Summer 2018!
I CAME, I SAW, I CAME, I SAW
Napoleon crossed the Alps and went on an expedition to Egypt.
I PRAISE THE LORD, THEN BREAK THE LAW
Napoleon, who came to power through a military coup, restored the Catholic Church to prominence with the Concordat of 1801, which proclaimed Catholicism as the "Majority Religion" of France.
I TAKE WHAT'S MINE, THEN TAKE SOME MORE
Napoleon's French Empire encompassed nearly all of the European continent at its peak. Francisco Goya's The Third of May shows Spanish guerrillas being executed by a firing squad.
IT RAINS, IT POURS, IT RAINS, IT POURS
Poor Napoleon couldn't win a naval battle to save his life. The French Navy was defeated by Admiral Lord Nelson in the Battle of the Nile and the Battle of Trafalgar. As a result, Napoleon was never able to invade Britain.
