  • The film opens with the storming of the Bastille, and an explanation of the revolutions in France. Scenes showing the reign of terror and execution of Louis XVII. Whilst Paris falls into the chaos of terror, a young army officer commands a battery of artillery at Toulon. Captain Bonaparte earns his reputation as a intelligent young officer. The film flashes forward to March 1796, with Bonaparte marrying Josephine de Beauharnais and subsequently leaving for a campaign in Italy. He takes command of French forces in Italy and leads them in a string of victories. Within a year he has gained french control over northern Italy, and returns to France. He establishes a consulate, with himself as 1st consul and effective dictator. Bonaparte then suggests a french invasion of Egypt, to damage British interests in Asia. He leaves on his Egyptian expedition. In 1800 he returns from Egypt, his army defeated, not by the British or Mamluks, but by plague. Napoleon enters Paris a hero, and in 1802 proclaims himself Emperor. He enacts new civil codes and spends time reforming French politics. In 1804 the ever power-hungry emperor invades the Rhine States, defeating them. Following a series of victories against Austria and Prussia by 1807 he has most of Europe in the palm of his hand. Napoleon launches his invasion of Britain, braving a dangerous sea voyage. After weeks of military maneuvering he deals the British several key defeats, before wiping out their army at Hastings.
