I don't understand this facination, this passion people (here ;-) get for Napoleon!
The other day, a colleague of Martin told him that he spent his free time studying the war plans of Napoleon!

At least if there was something romantically heroic (hehe, yup, a goil talking huh :P) about him... some fever bits about his life...
But only conquests, wars, etc.... yuck!
I think hard and even a guy like the tyranic Robespierre seems less cold than Napoleon......
Even the architecture or the fashion of the time look pretty ugly (to me). No, I don't understand his popularity.

Take a man like Henri IV, who loved playing with his kids and who, when he left for war, never forgot to write passionate letters to his wife and mistresses! Now dat's an entertaining one, nee?!!
