Napoleon Trial

I personally thought that Napoleon was guilty, he took part in many terrible actions and decisions, the main being not signing the proclamation of Rights of Man. Being the King of France his duties were to make sure the people were happy, but by not signing this proclamation he angered almost all of France. Once he realized that he upset pretty much all of france he escaped. As the King you should NOT leave and tell no one where your going. He did not just leave he tried to escape which is a big no no for the king. He also believed that slavery was a good thing. Which i strongly disagree with. He thought oh slaves are great, you can use them if you want. But really slaves should not have been legal when he was king its terrible way of treating humans and all humans should be treated fairly. There were more points in the trial which proved him to be as guilty as they come in my mind.

  1. Thank you for the blog post, but I think you may have Napoleon, who crowned himself Emperor after the Reign of Terror, confused with Louis XVI, who was the King of France before the French Revolution. They're both absolute monarchs, so it can get a little confusing!
