Was Napoleon a military hero : He is considered one of the greatest military commanders in history and his wars and campaigns are still studied at military schools worldwide. However, historians still debate the degree to which he was responsible for the Napoleonic Wars, in which between three and six million people died.
He won over 80% of his battles
Rising to power in the context of the French Revolutionary Wars, Napoleon had to face in total 7 different coalitions for over 20 years before being ultimately defeated at Waterloo in 1815. Thanks to his military genius, he was able to win 44 out of the 51 battles he had to fight. In the early years, Napoleon's Grande Armée was the most capable battlefield force in the world; Napoleon could demand feats of endurance, sacrifice and complexity beyond those of his opponents. But the quality of its later performances declined as casualties took their toll on the troops and on his marshals.
What was special about Napoleon
Napoleon played a key role in the French Revolution (1789–99), served as first consul of France (1799–1804), and was the first emperor of France (1804–14/15). Today Napoleon is widely considered one of the greatest military generals in history.Napoleon was one of the greatest military minds in the history of warfare.

How strong was Napoleon’s army : The French Army grew as Napoleon seized power across Europe, recruiting troops from occupied and allied nations; it reached its peak of one million men at the start of the Russian campaign in 1812, with the Grande Armée reaching its height of 413,000 French soldiers and over 600,000 men overall when including foreign …
Did Napoleon defeat Russia : Assuming the encounter would result in an immediate French victory, Napoleon marched his armies into Russian territories only to be met with fierce, unexpected retreats and repeated counterattacks by the Russian Imperial Army that led to a decisive Russian victory.
How tall was Napoleon
At the time of his death, the French might have recorded his height in French inches, which were a little longer than English inches. They put him at five-foot-two, but this was probably more like 5 feet and 6.5 inches, a perfectly normal height for a man of his time. Napoleon was not content simply to be master of France. He wanted to control the rest of Europe and to reassert French power in the New World. He envisioned his western empire to include Louisiana, Florida, French Guiana, and the French West Indies.The result: "mathematics proves it", Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821) is "the best general in history". The Emperor of the French came in "comfortably" first, ahead of Julius Caesar and the Duke of Wellington, one of his toughest opponents.
