Napoleone di Buonaparte

The chaos of the Revolution and threats of foreign intervention have given ambitious young officers a chance to shine - a chance that has been seized in both hands by one Napoleone di Buonaparte, a Corsican artillery lieutenant. His success in several engagements have brought him to prominence. Most recently, he single-handedly quashed a monarchist uprising in our capital by deploying the heavy cannons on the city streets, the success of this decisive action earning him the adoration of the people. Already many leaders of the Revolution look favorably upon him and are pushing for him to be elevated to high office. However, he is a man of much ambition, one who may not be content to rule as a mere our ruler.
