Unlike the monarchs in Vienna, London, and St. Petersburg, Napoleon Bonaparte did not come by his authority via birth-right. Rather, he seized control by virtue of brilliant military strategy and excellent timing: the momentum of the French Revolution, he correctly gauged, was waning -- the perfect time for a popular soldier with organizational genius to step in. Event-ually he was overthrown, but not before branding history with his searing accomplishments.
