Napoleon bonapartes rise to power came as

Napoleon Bonapartes rise to power was handed to him by fate. He first became a French hero, when he protected the Directory from the royalist insurgence. He then became even more famous when, after given an army, he won remarkable battles. He then went off to try to take over the Suez Canal from the british, but failed. Luckily, he was able to keep that defeat from the French Republic. When he returned, he led a coup that resulted in him becoming the 'emperor' of France
