Funny how Napoleon remained remembered mostly for the good stuff he did - like reform of the French legal system and bureaucracy. A few million casualties - nah who cares, Napoleon is a cool dude.

Are you talking about the wars in which all of Europe attacked France for killing its king?

They may be talking about the subsequent wars, after Napoleon became a monarch himself.
