Napoleon is a greedy man yet he has done very helpful things to society. He had people make himself the First Consul for life and decided himself Emperor of France. He was a bad leader yet he wanted to some good things to stay the leader of France, it made him feel in control. There are a few things that society benefited from his selfishness for him and his army.
He created the Napoleonic code but it took away rights of women and children. He created public schools for everyone but he only did that to benefit the strength of his army. When he was fighting in battles napoleon always fought in the front, when most leaders sent his soldiers in front of them and watched his soldiers die. He was a very confident person which made him become more successful.
There are a few things that are also very unlikeable about Napoleon too. He was very selfish and wanted his army to be the best. I don’t think he really cared about anything else except his success.
Many people think that Napoleon was a bad person but I think that he wasn’t all that bad. He may have done greedy things, but it did benefit society in the end.
