Mon Influence sur la Culture Francaise

 

I had one of the greatest influences on the French culture. First of all and most importantly I was a leader in the French Revolution in fact I was on one of the most important people in the French Revolution since I led the people of France to their freedom. Soon after and during the Revolution I gained many followers and my power grew.  After the revolution I set myself up as emperor of France. This was a sudden change for France since the people were not used to the new form of government at times there were problems with the new government. Yet in other times things were going just fine for our country. When I took over the constitution of France was written granted my people more freedom than under any king. Things were much more modern now and the government was a huge improvement.

            I also helped spread the French culture by winning important battles in my quest of gaining control of the world. Through these sieges other countries were able to adapt to our culture and were given a national language which was French and the culture and the language are still spoken today in these countries. An example of my great success is Africa. Most of the African countries speak French thanks to my victories. This also allowed my fellow French brothers to spread out to the countries I conquered. Also new goods and ideas from these new nations were brought back home which allowed our country to gain new knowledge and our own culture was added on to.  

            My strategies in warfare were and are used today by the French and other armies from other countries. I brought new ideas and important facts to France in warfare. I also welcomed anyone in the army who was willing to fight for their country. This created a sense of patriotism for our country that so far was not very present at all. I made my people proud to be French since they realized how powerful France was becoming. Most importantly my sieges mad the French nation very rich which made it possible for France to become what it is today.
