Napoleon brought positve vibes and effects, when he and his gunners had welcomed thousands of royalists with a cannonade. Therefore, that sent the attackers in panic and confusion. He then became "Hero of The Hour." He was then hailed throughout the city of Paris as a savior of the French Republic. 1796 Napoleon led a French army against forces such as Austria, and the kingdom of Sardinia. Young Napoleon won remarkable sets of victories, but that of course wasn't going to last for long, when his army was pinned down in Egypt, and the British defeated his forces. However, Napoleon kept stories about his wars that had been out of newspapers and he remained a hero of France.…

Born in 1769, Napoleon Bonaparte is one of the most famous people of French history. Being immersed in the military from the age of 9 and on, it is no wonder that he became one of, arguably, the best military leaders of all time. But, the question comes about, was Napoleon a hero or a tyrant? Along with the many good things that Napoleon did to help the people of France after the French Revolution, came some very, very bad things. In no time he went from being loved and adored by the people of France to being absolutely loathed. Some people argue that even with all the bad things that he did, Bonaparte was still a hero, but how can somebody who did so many terrible things still be a hero? Napoleon was a tyrant because of his belief in equality for only half of the…
In my onion, Napoleon was the creator of his time and not the creation of his time because he made most of his opportunities from his hard work.

After that event was thought of as a great leader. In 1796, after proving himself, the directory told Napoleon to be in charge of the French army when the fought the Kingdom of Sardinia and Austria. During that…

He also created one form of government for his empire. Alexander was one of the bravest emperors in the Ancient World.…
Andrew Jackson, our seventh President of the United States, is a rather acceptable President. He was considered as the "People's President," he was very straight forward and honest to his people. He takes his job seriously and is probably the most liberal president in history. His presidency however was neither a hero nor a villain, but shared a fair amount of each.…
During Jackson’s presidency many would say that he was a hero while others would speak of him as a villain; it all depends on the point of view one perceives it. If someone was a farmer or a common man, they most likely would say he was a hero, but if an individual was a Native American or from South Carolina they would probably refer to him as a villain. Andrew Jackson was born poor in the border of North and South Carolina and raised by a single mother, which was very rear during this time. He could made people do what he wanted; if he wanted South Carolina to pay tariffs he would force them to pay. This will make South Carolinians very upset. Jackson also imposed some laws against Native Americans but that also favored farmers and their families.…
“Alexander The Great Hero or Villain” By: Shelby Hammond-Helms I think that Alexander the Great is a hero because he had a lot of accomplishments and legacies that are important. Alexander the Great did do some bad things but most heroes do. I think that his accomplishments over ride his actions that were hurtful to other people. I think that his most important accomplishment is the Hellenistic culture. Alexander the Great founded the city Alexandria.…

Was Napoleon Bonaparte a hero or a tyrant? Did the good of his actions outweigh the bad? Napoleon Bonaparte was a French military leader who rose to power during the French Revolution. He eventually conquered most of Europe and named himself emperor. I believe that Napoleon was a tyrant for a few different reasons. These include that he was egotistical, selfish, and untruthful.…
Recently, in class, we have been learning about Alexander the great, specifically whether he was a villain, or a hero. I lean more towards the side of villain to most, except for Macedon, because the land was all for them. He could be thought of as a villain because he enslaved 30,000 and killed 6,000 in Thebes, attempted to force all people into one culture and strip them of their own, and he also treated those who tried to escape horrendously.…
