Napolean did not have access to ICBM, thats why I also think NK is a tad scarier that France anon 1800...

You are thinking that Napoleon is a phenomenon on NK instead of being a phenomenon of France. This is based on some loud noises coming from the direction of NK and relative silence from French side. This is baseless.

France have access to ICBM, aaaand we know they are Napoleon-capable. I'm not saying they're in for a global conflict, just telling that political-military opinions are built upon sand.

Well, Napoleon was born on a Mediterranean island (Corsica), which wasn't part of France the year he was born.

Edit: it was sold (? or given) to France this year, from the Republic of Genoa.
