He's famous for defeating Napolean @ Waterloo... but I also recall, that he's the one that first popularized the custom of daily bathing in England-- which is a habit he picked up in India. And the way he conducted himself in battle, as well as in politics, shows that he's conservative, and 'steady'.

Thus, he must be an ISTJ

Do you mean that some people in England actually bathe every day?

Good God! I was not aware that such fastidiousness existed!

There exists someting called "common sense".

You do not have to be an "S" to possess "common sense" because "common sense" is available to ALL types. (At least in theory.)

"Common sense" indicates that if you have one VI thread with a lot of different people to VI, then there will be some confusion about which picture is being VIed.

It therefore makes sense to have a separate thread for each VI.

Emperor Napoleon I was one of the closest to Godhood a man ever reached. Wellington's glory came from playing a colorful role in defeating a critically self-wounded beast - hardly commendable at all. Lord Nelson was 10x the man Wellington was, and Nelson should have gotten off his high horse and realized that he was fighting on the wrong side.

Viva La Empereur!

I think it would have been interesting if Napoleon managed to exterminate the European aristocracies and replace their archaic system that usually manifested with material excess and nepotism with something similar to the Qin Dynasty, a ruthlessly efficient and meritocratic Empire.
