Well, your first problem is that you presented three questions, not two. As for the answers, I forgot stuff like that long ago. Sorry.

Honestly. If you don't do your own homework, you won't learn anything.

Napolean's greatest weakness was- He suffered from 'Short Man's Syndrome'-
An angry male of below average height who feels it necessary to act out in an attempt to gain respect and recognition from others and compensate for his abnormally short stature.
Also Napolean, as much as he tried just couldn't beat Sharpe on the Battlefield.

I agree with Jaylemurph. You should do your homework. I found it was easiest to look in the textbook at this part, really read it and understand it, then say it again in your own words. It's really not that hard to research these kinds of things on your own. I think its amazing that students these days are going online and asking people like us these essay questions. Wow. What happened to our education system? GEt an encyclopedia, go to the library and get a book, go on wikipedia, search google's scholarly articles, i mean there are a million things you can do on your own instead of just copying what one of us says. If you need help with researching ideas, go ahead and ask us about that instead of your actual homework.

Hi LucidElement yes.gif

In my opinion the French Revolution was a combination of separate events that resulted in the eventual demise and replacement of the aristocratic hierarchy, to try and clarify it was the culmination of continuous physical and monetary oppression of the French peasants by the wealthy minority and the resulting mass resentment and revolution, I guess you could say it was cause’s and a single affect.

The Congress of Vienna Major personalities were the United Kingdom, Russia, Prussia, Austria and France.
The Congress of Vienna was primarily set up to re-distribute Territory between the major powers in an effort to prevent further conflict, to do this the Congress of Vienna repatriated the citizens, resources and land to the original custodians prior to the Napoleonic Wars.
Yes it did work and although many people felt they had been ripped off Europe averted major conflict for the next 100 years what in retrospect is a long time, Imagine if we could go for a Hundred years without any conflict in the current world climate.

I suspect if you were able ask Napoleon what his main weaknesses are he would tell you he has none! However his weaknesses included complacency due to overconfidence in his past military victories and underestimating his opponents resourcefulness and ability to learn from there defeats, Napoleon also suffered from the “Napoleon complex" what is to simply overcompensate for his inferiority complex.
