You are so correct. Napoleon did suffer egomaniacal behavior, but what about Clinton, and McCain?

What many do not know is that Napoleon was the first to write the civil code of procedure.

Evidently even fewer know that the Code Napoleon was based on and a revival of the Code of Justinian the Great, written in the Corpus Juris Civilis -- the body of civil law compiled in the 6th Century AD.
