Napoleon Bonaparte was born on the island of Corsica in Ajaccio on August 15, 1769. It was by chance that the future ruler of France was born as a French citizen. His christening name, Napoleone Buonaparte, was Italian, and his parents had just immigrated to Corsica from Italy in the 16th century. The island was transferred to France from the Republic of Genoa one-year before Napoleon was born. Napoleon was the second son in his family, which was very large. When he was a boy he did not like the French. He considered them oppressors of Italy. He got that from his father, Charles, who was a lawyer that actively plotted against the French taking control over Corsica. Because of this, Napoleon was very familiar with the ways in which revolutionist operated. This knowledge that he had of revolutionist was to serve him well in his rise to power. When Napoleon was nine years old his father sent him to a French government military school named Brienne. His classmates constantly picked on him. This only made him withdraw into dreams of military triumphs and personal glory. When he was 15 he attended the École Militaire in Paris. There he received training as an officer and an artilleryman. He joined the French army when he had complete
He had won 14 pitched battles and 70 combats. A new form of government was formed that was called the Consulate. After Napoleon realized that he could not take over England he decided to invade Russia. Russia was still on very amiable terms with him though. In 1792 Napoleon was made a captain, and in 1793 he directed the artillery in the siege of Toulon. Napoleon knew this was a wonderful chance for self-advancement. He established the Bank of France and the Legion of Honor. They could not stay in Moscow in this environment so they began to retreat on October 19. Napoleon would not admit that he had lost all power. He had created an empire and he needed an heir to take over the thrown when he was gone. Soon he divorced her in 1809 because she did not conceive a child. Napoleon was forced to resign on April 6, 1814. In March 1815 he escaped from Elba and landed in France. On August 10, 1792 a French Republic was established.
