1. Rise of Napoleon

 * ===Early Life===
 * ===Military Success (Marla Wilcox- 2nd hour) In 1792 Napoleon became a captain in the revolution and war with Europe. Two years later he was appointed brigadier general of the committee of public safety. Later, in 1796 he became commander of the French armies in Italy where he won a series of battles. Speed, surprise, and decisive action were his strong points which helped him defeat the Papal states and their Austrian allies. He won France control of Northern Italy, but later when the British defeated the French Naval forces supporting Napoleon, he abandoned his army and returned to Paris. ===
 * ===He was Consul and Emperor (consulate and his powers)===

Downsized the 300 codes to 1. Preserved equality for all citizens before the law. The right of the individual to choose a profession. Religious Toleration. Abolition of serfdom and all feudal obligations. thanx Ali +1
 * ===His relationship to the church // - (Jacob Hawes-1st Hour) - Napoleon's first move at home was to establish peace with the catholic church. He believed that religion was the most social convenience. Napoleon came to an agreement the pope that recognized Catholicism. The pope would not ask for the return of the church lands seized// in the revolution . Now with that the catholic church is no longer an enemy with the french government thanx jacob +3 ===
 * ===His codification of the laws (civic code and the four major principles) (Ali Smith) ===
 * ===His new bureaucratic policies - (Travis Shivley - 1st Hour) - Napolean created a new bueaucracy of capable officials. The officials were based on ability, not rank of family. This reformed the middle class by opening up jobs for talented men. This also created a new aristocracy, or upper class. There were now 3,200 nobles in this class. 60% of the class were military officers. 22% of the nobles were already from noble families. The rest of the class was made up of working people. good!thanx Travis +3 ===
 * ===Did he preserve the revolution? (Anne-Louise-Germaine de Stael)===


 * ===How did he build his Empire?===
 * ===How did his Principles of the Revolution spread?===
 * ===How did the British resist Napoleon? (Cora Schuon 5th hour) the British resisted Napoleon's control because they were able to maintain control of their navy. The Spanish/French navy stopped Napoleon's plans for invasion, so he brought on the Continental Plan, which said that Britain could not trade overseas. They went behind his back and ended up creating new markets in the Middle East and Latin America. Well done +3 ===
 * ===What is Nationalism? - (RJ Perron-1st Hour) - Ethnic groups that want to keep their ethnicity alive by practicing religion, speaking their language, and keeping their symbols. thanx RJ +1 ===


 * ===What happened in Russia? - (Caitlin Zokvic-1st hour) - Napoleon led an attack on Russia because Russia did not follow the Continental System (Russia traded with Britan) Instead of fighting Napoleon and his army, the Russian army fled to their capital. On the way, the Russians burned their villages and crops so the French army would not have supplies or shelter. Napoleon led a retreat to Paris. He had set out with 600,000 soilders, and returned with less then 40.000. Good! Caitlin +3 ===
 * ** (Kara Dwyer-2nd hour)- Russia did not want to take a face on battle, so instead they fled all their cities and took all of their supplies so that Napolean would starve or run out of supplies. thanx +1 **
 * ===What was his final Defeat? (Duke of Wellington) - (Bradlee Taylor - 2nd Hour) The new king had little support, Napoleon returned from exile, and slipped back to France. The king sent troops to capture Napoleon but Napoleon said he was emperor and the troops excepted him. Russia, Great Britian, Austria, and Prussia pledged to defeat him. But Napoleon raised a new army and was ready to fight the allied troops Duke Wellington led the British and Prussian armies and defeated Napoleon at Waterloo in Belgium, June 18, 1815. Well done! thanx Bradlee +3 ===
