Napoleon Bonaparte was born August 15, 1769 and died May 5, 1921 because of stomach cancer but there are many different story’s to why exactly he died one other is that he captured because the French government was afraid of him and they put poison in to the paper he would touch and eventually it killed him. He was born in Mediterranean Island of Corsica and was born into a minor noble family of Italian descent; the island he was born in was soon transferred from the Italian Control to French. When Napoleon was 9 years old he began to train as an artillery officer in France. He was certainly raised to be a soldier. Napoleon was married twice, the first time he was married it was to Josephine a 32 year old widow, when they got married Josephine already two children, Eugene and Hortense which he arranged marriages for both the children. Josephine secretly did not like Napoleon so when he would write her daily love letters she would reply and act like she missed him when in fact, she didn’t at all. When Napoleon would ask her to visit him while he was away she said she was pregnant, instead she was out going to balls and cheating on Napoleon. Finally one of Napoleons officers was sent to get Josephine willing or not willing. When she came to Napoleon he was excepting his pregnant wife, she lied and said she had a miscarriage. When Napoleon came home Josephine tried her best to pull herself together but as soon as he left to Egypt she was right back to her old ways, but Napoleon found out what she was doing… she wasn’t low.

So they had to get divorced a different way. Napoleon was very hurt from his first marriage so when he remarried he thought it only right to marry someone of high class so he married the eldest daughter of an Austrian emperor. Napoleons new wife was young, 18 so she was never as mature as Napoleons old wife, but Marie Louise, his new wife had a son which he had been waiting for, for so long. Their marriage was calm with nothing wrong but it was said that Napoleon still said he loved Josephine move then Marie Louise. Napoleon was a military and political leader of France.
