Napoleon Bonaparte was a supreme opportunist, driven by a burning desire for power. In 1899 he judged that the momentum of the French revolutionary had burned itself out the time was ripe for a popular soldier with a genius for organization to take control. Unlike the monarchs in Vienna, St. Petersburg and London, Napoleon as the son of provincial lawyer could never claim to derive authority from descent. He enjoyed complete loyalty of the army. His brilliant military strategies won him control of most of Europe. The conquered people of Europe finally banded together to defeat Napoleon.
