Give each student a copy of pages 79A-79G.2. Choose three students to be Napoleon. Tell the three which one is the real Napoleon (I don’t), but do not let the other students know. It is NUMBER 3.3. Choose 14 members of the class to be panelists. They will each ask an assigned question. At the end of the game, these panelists and the other students will vote for the person they think is the real Napoleon. At this point, the real one will be asked to step forward.4. When the voting is taking place, ask a few students to explain why they are voting for a certain contestant.5. Assign the true/false questions.Student Directions:1. Three students will be chosen to pretend they are Napoleon Bonaparte. They will stand next to each other in the front of room facing the class. During the game, the three will be asked questions by other students in class. The questions will be about napoleon’s life. 2. Fourteen other students will be chosen to ask one question each during the game. They will be assigned a number from 1 to 14. This is the number of the question they will ask when the game begins.3. After every question the tree Napoleons will each give an answer. “Number 1” will always answer first, “number 2” second, and “Number 3” third. Only one of the three is really napoleon. The real one will always tell the truth when answering questions. The other two will only tell the truth once in awhile. After all 14 questions have been asked, class members will vote for the person they think is the real Napoleon.4. This game will be played like a television game show. The teacher will be the “MC,” or master of Ceremonies. A student can play this role, if desired. The people who ask questions are the “panelists.”79 A AAAMC: Now let us meet Napoleon. Number 1, what is your name please?Number 1: My name is Napoleon.MC: Number 2?Number 2: My name is Napoleon.MC: Number 3?Number 3: My name is Napoleon.MC: And here is Napoleon’s story. He says, “I, Napoleon Bonaparte, was the greatest ruler of my time. I rose to power in the 1790’s during the French Revolution, eventually becoming the dictator of France. My goal was to create a worldwide empire stretching from America in the west to India and Australia in the east. My troops defeated foreign armies techniques for waging war, directed complicated military maneuvers, and gained a reputation as one of the outstanding generals in history. At the height of power, 42 million people were subject ot my rule,” Signed, “Napoleon Bonaparte.” We will start the questioning with Panelist 1.Panelist 1: People are more familiar with your military and political accomplishments than they are with the earlier years of your life. Can you tell us something about your parents and family?Number 1: My parents owned a small shop in Paris where they made and sold clothing. I was the oldest of three children. When I was growing up, mother and father used to complain about how we and other middle class families were treated by the French government. Too many special privileges were given by King Louis XVI to the clergy and nobility. This is why I later became involved in the French Revolution.Number 2: My mother died when I was very young, so I hardly remember her. My father was a gunsmith, and as I grew older he made me his apprentice. My skill in making and using guns led me to join the French army. I was an only child.79BNumber 3: I was the fourth of thirteen children. My father was a lawyer. My mother was beautiful and intelligent. We were members of the nobility.Panelist 2: Would you say that you grew up much the same as other French youngsters of the 1700’s?Number 1: Yes, because most French citizens belonged to the middle class as we did. I helped my parents at the clothing shop and spent the rest of my time being like other kids.Number 2: My boyhood was uneventful, with one exception. On the day that Louis XVI was crowned king, his coach passed near where I lived on its way from Paris to the Palace at Versailles. Because French kings were absolute monarchs who wasted taxpayers’ money left me bleeding along the roadside. I vowed that I would help the revolutionaries overthrow Louis. But I never dreamed that I would someday rule France I the place of the king.Number 3: At age 10, my father sent me to military school. I wasn’t an outstanding student, but did excel in mathematics and history. These were lonely times, and I kept mostly to myself. Other boys bullied me and caused me to further withdraw. Quite a bit of my time alone was spent dreaming of future conquests and the glory that might be mine.Panelist 3: Briefly, what were a few of your personal qualities as a young man?Number 1: I was honest, hardworking, and believed that all Frenchmen should be treated as equals.Number 2: I was hot-tempered and always wanted to do things my way. I feared no one, but did respect my father. Teachers at school would probably describe me a wise guy.79CNumber 3: I studied battle field tactics and rose through the ranks as a private, corporal, sergeant, second lieutenant, captain, major, brigadier general, and finally general .Panelist 5: During the revolution, you led French armies against countries who kings wanted to keep a monarch on the French throne. Your many victories soon proved to all that you were a gifted commander. What was your secret for winning battles?Number 1: I always planned a battle with careful attention to detail. Good planning even made it possible to defeat an enemy who army outnumbered my own.Number 2: The secret of victory was to have a well-trained and well- supplied army that had confidence in me as its leader.Number3: I won battle by finding a weak point in the enemy line and attacking with the full strength of my army. The line would collapse at that point and my troops would conquer one half of the enemy soldiers, then the other half.Panelist 6: What event or events helped you become a national heroNumber 1: I became a popular figure by commanding the army that backed politicians who forced Louis XVI from the throne. The politicians had Louis beheaded. I was later named dictator of the new French Republic that replaced the king.Number 2:Several governments rose and fell during the French Revolution. Confusion and fear swept the country as rival groups competed for power. The French people looked for someone who could end the turmoil and restore peace to their troubled land. Since I was the most successful French general at that tie, citizens demanded I take control f the government.Number 3: My fame came from defeating Austrian armies in northern Italy. Later, while fighting in Egypt against the Turks and British, I suddenly returned to Paris and seize power. I set up a new government headed by myself as first consul.79DPanelist 7: How did the French people react to you becoming dictator?Number 1: They were happy that the reign of Louis XVI was over. But some feared I might abuse one-man rule much as Louis had. Others were jealous of my vast political power. During an assassination attempt, two fingers were shot off. I became self- conscious of the wound and afterwards kept the injured hand hidden inside of my coat.Number 2:The name “Napoleon” was known across France and throughout the rest of Europe. I became emperor of the French amidst wild enthusiasm and celebration.Number 3:The people voted my first consul for life. A year later, the French Senate gave me the title “emperor.” I was even given the right to choose my successor.Panelist 8: What would you say is a fair description of your physical appearance?Number1: Above average height, plain facial features, a rugged build, and an overall neat appearance. Number 2: Average height, handsome face with determined eyes, but a little overweight.Number 3: I am rather short, have thick eyebrows and a small mouth, and look quite unimpressive.Panelist 9: A period of peace followed your takeover of the French government. However, the desire to conquer other lands and dominate Europe soon plunged France into years of warfare. At one point you even sold the Louisiana Territory to the United States to finance new military campaigns. After capturing foreign lands, what steps did you take to keep these areas under French control?Number 1: A new government would be set up which included both local representatives and French military personnel.79ENumber 2: I always kept a French general and several thousand soldiers stationed in the captured territory. Their job was to oversee the government and put down any revolts which might occur.Number 3: I put my brothers, sisters, and friends on the thrones of Europe.Panelist 10: How would you describe the relationship between you and your soldiers?Number 1: They had confidence in my ability and were willing to follow me anywhere.Number 2: I think they feared me to some extent. But more importantly, they respected my talent and felt I would lead them to great victories.Number 3: My men adored me. I was their idol.Panelist 11: What nickname did the soldiers have for you?Number 1: The “Old Fox.”Number 2: They called me “Blood and Guts,”Number 3: I was “The Little Corporal.” Panelist 12: Besides being a military genius, you were a talented government official. What were some of your accomplishments as emperor of France?Number 1: I organized a legal system called the “Code Napoleon,” established French colonies in Africa, started a fair method of taxation, supported business expansion, and increased religious freedom.Number 2: I brought an end to years of wasteful spending by French kings. As government spending was reduced, so were taxes. Privileges given to the First Estate and Second estate were done away with. Schools, hospitals, and roadways were built.79FNumber 3: I prepared a system of laws known as the “Code Napoleon,” established a strong central government, founded the Bank of France and the University of France, and started the Legion of Honor to recognize the contributions of French soldiers and citizens.Panelist 13: In the early 1800’s, few countries in Europe remained free of French rule. Only Great Britain, Prussia, Russia, and Sweden kept you from becoming master of the continent. You never succeeded in conquering all of Europe. What event prevented this from happening?Number 1: Our navy was defeated at Trafalgar off the Spanish coast by Lord Nelson of Great Britain. This was a critical loss for us, because it left the British in control of the seas. Without superior sea power, there was no way we could expect to cross the English Channel and invade Great Britain. It also weakened our chances of defeating Prussia, Russia, and Sweden. Number 2: Our good fortunes came to an end in a disastrous invasion of Russia. As the Russians retreated, they destroyed everything of value so nothing useful would fall into the city had been set on fire by the Russians themselves. With no shelter available, there was no choice except to march back to France through snow and bitter cold. Most of our 600.000 soldiers either deserted or were killed or captured along the way. France’s army never recovered from this terrible defeat.Number 3:The turning point in the European wars was our unsuccessful Russian invasion. This defeat left us with an army of old men and young boys. Our veteran troops had been wiped out.79GPanelist 14: Great Britain, Russia, Spain, Prussia, and Sweden formed an alliance that finally brought about your defeat. Louis XVIII was then put on the French throne and you were sent to the tiny island of Elba off the coast of Italy. But you soon escaped from Elba and made a dramatic return to France. Excited officers and soldiers rallied around you as Louis fled from Paris. However, your return to power, known as the “Hundred Days,” soon ended when Britain’s Duke of Wellington crushed French forces at Waterloo. What happened to you after this final defeat?Number 1: To prevent any further trouble, the Allies prepared to execute me by firing squad.Number 2: I was imprisoned in London, guarded round the clock, and not allowed to have visitors.Number 3: I was sent to a lonely island off the coast of Africa to spend the rest of my life. Friends and family deserted me. I spent time writing about my personal life and military career.MC: It’s time now to vote for NUMBER 1, NUMBER 2, or NUMBER 3. All those who think NUMBER 1 is the real Napoleon, please raise your hand. All those who think NUMBER 2 is the real Napoleon, raise your hand.
