Napoleon while conquering many countries and cities, was only trying to help the world while bringing power to France, he promoted sciences, math, and literature. Many of the average people were mostly effected by Napoleon's reign at first. Napoleon was at first trying to give as much land and power to France as he could. This would not necessarily mean he would change the way of life for most citizens of each country he conquered. After being sent to the island of Elba and escaping, he became slightly more violent and attacked more cities more viciously. He was harsher and was even confident enough to challenge Russia. But, unprepared for the Russian winter, many of his troops died and he was eventually banished to the Island of St. Helena where he would eventually die.
