    If I remember correctly, after the defeat of the 4th colalition, Napoleon visited the tomb of Fredrick the great. “Gentlemen” he said. He passed his hat to an officer. “If this man were still alive, I would not be here.” If somebody like nopoleon can humble him self to the likes of Fredrick, it really says something about both of them.

    In Leipzig, there‘s a ginormous memorial of the Battle of Leipzig called “Völkerschlachtsdenkmal“ (Battle of the Nations memorial). You have to be there in person to witness the true size of this memorial! It really does justice to those who died there.

      Emperors have more prestige and power
      As much as how you might think medieval kings are basically like supreme leaders or dictators, they must oblige to rules set by other aristocrats. Emperors are mostly the one that's closer to dictators, although Napoleon also had a council of advisors

    An interesting insight is that Napoleon's army was essentially pagan. One could differentiate the corpses of Frenchmen and Russians at the field of Borodino because the former would have animist, pagan and even satanist tattoos, motifs and trinkets while the latter had Orthodox crosses.
    Later, when Napoleon returned to France it is said that the soldiers greeted him with "Down with the King, the Church and the Priests! Long live the Emperor and Hell!"
