The life of a professional soldier came to appeal to many who saw it as a career filled with opportunity for advancement, and now ordinary citizens were able to distinguish themselves in any number of specialized positions in military conflict. The European military tradition arguably reached its highest point during the reign of Napoleon Boneparte in France when, through military might, France gained control of the majority of European soil.
