His exploits are legendary, but his personal life is so well documented that we get to see the more modern version of Caesar and Alexander as a mere man just like us.

Do y’all agree? Or who do you think it is?

Robert E Lee is probably the most interesting.

Like his drawings, or him spending time with his uncle in Alaska hunting wolverines.

Napoleon rocks. His letters to Joséphine are crazy. He was a simp for her and still whipped the shite out of everyone in Europe.

My favorite story from Napoleon is when he was going through his divorce he sent his wife a picture of his side pieces bathing suit while at 30A and told her that her fat arse hadn't been able to fit in something that small in two decades

I mean that’s a strong flex, but it probably cost him some serious $$$ in the settlement.

I’d imagine Mrs ex Napoleon made Sherman in Georgia look like a humanitarian after that.

It's highly debatable. We know about him from people that wrote stories long after his death. It's mostly fiction.

Napoleon is 1000% more interesting than JC.

Interesting timeline of how France simping for the 13 colonies bankrupted them and gave them Napoleon then Napoleon simping for war bankrupted them and gave us a Louisiana the size of Stephanie Abram’s breasts.
