<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nNapoleon wanted to be a great man but was pessimistic about his career as a soldier because the top military positions were reserved for the nobility. In other words, he could not be a general. Only French noblemen could be generals. However, the French Revolution changed this system. On 14 July 1789, Paris erupted like a volcano. Big angry crowds were on the streets, crying, \u201cliberty, equality, brotherhood\u201d French people rebelled against monarchy. They killed the king. The monarchy was abolished. The Republic was proclaimed. The nobility lost their privileges. This was good for Napoleon because now top military positions were available to everyone. So, he liked the revolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/h2>\n\n\n\nSIEGE OF TOULON<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nIn 1794, Napoleon was an artillery captain. At that time, France was at war with most of Europe. Monarchy was the political regime in these countries. The kings didn\u2019t like the French Revolution because they didn\u2019t want to lose their crowns and heads. The French king Louis XVI, had lost first his crown, and then his head because of the Revolution. They didn\u2019t want to lose theirs. So, they wanted to destroy the French Republic and the revolutionary ideas.
Toulon was a city on the southern coast of France. It rebelled against the Republic and opened its port to the British fleet. Napoleon was ordered to Toulon to take the city. He went to Toulon. He said, \u201cif we take that hill, we can bombard the British fleet and take the city” This was Napoleon\u2019s first test as a commander. It was also an opportunity because aristocratic generals had fled the country and there was a vacuum. Napoleon fought bravely and proved himself a good commander. Ten British ships were in flames. The British fled. Napoleon was victorious. He was promoted. He was made a brigadier general. He was 25 years old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a letter to his brother Napoleon wrote, \u201cWomen here are the center of importance\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
People didn\u2019t care about him much because he was just another ambitious young soldier. In other words, there were many young soldiers at the time who wanted to rise. Josephine was one of the fashionable women in Paris society. She was a 33-year-old-widow with two children. Her first husband, a nobleman and general before the revolution, had been guillotined. She was an important woman in Paris society. She could help Napoleon rise. She was older than him. But, he fell in love with her. They got married.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Napoleon was promoted to full general. He was only 26 years old.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/h2>\n\n\n\nITALIAN CAMPAIGN<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nIn 1796, Napoleon was made the commander of the French army in Italy. This army was fighting the Austrian and Italian forces. It wasn\u2019t a successful army. When Napoleon arrived, their morale was low. They didn\u2019t have enough food. They didn\u2019t have shoes. Napoleon encouraged them. He said, \u201cSoldiers, you are naked and hungry. I will lead you to rich places. Rich provinces and great cities will be in your power.\u201d He improved their morale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The French army was outnumbered. 37.000 soldiers of the French army faced 52.0000 enemy soldiers. Napoleon made a plan. Napoleon\u2019s plan was to isolate the Italians from the Austrians, and then fight them separately. First he fought the Italians. The battle began on April 2.
