Did lil'Nappy see himself as a frenchman or as an italiano?
Italian or French?
He wished he were French
In his early life he saw himself as a super special corsican freedom foghter but that got squashed when he went to military school
Roman
He was a brainwashed opportunist. He was of Tuscan and Genoese descent, not Corsican by the way.
Macedonian
He was Danish (descended from the Norman conquerors of Sicily) but saw himself as French
He was BLACK
North African larping as French whose ancestors larped as Italians.
Caling Nepoleon was Danish is a looooong stretch of the imagination.
Next, you will tell me he was africans because 100,000 years ago his ancestors were africans.
This
Little known fact but he was actually an Englishman from Bristol
He saw himself as Corsican and his native language was Italian.
He was an albanian
Nationally French, just like everyone else who just didn't know it yet. He would go on to tell them that they were French. Sure they may be from "Germany" (Schnitzle France), "Italy" (Pasta France) or "Russia" (Borscht France), but as far as he was concerned, they were all French.
Born Corsican, died french. Vive l'Empereur!
Neither National identities really existed yet but...
>Corsican separatist/ nationalist in his youth
>Matured to be the effective founder of French Nationalism
He was an anglo, why do you think the uk became the main superpower afterwards?
His last words were 'France, the Army, Josephine'
Yeah he had Hitler's Albanian y-chromosome.
Alsace is French.
Yes a dna test was taken 6 years ago to get to the bottom on OPs question to everyones shock he was 92% south african. (4% roman 3% french 1%unknown) the question that should arise first. Why do historians/artist whitewash all of history?
Neither. Corsican.
But that's close enough to French anyway.
Fun fact, Napoleon was nicknamed "la paille au nez" by his comrades in military school.
Pronounced "la pay o nay".
Which means "the straw (or a blade of grass) to the nose".
>La vieille garde ne combat qu'à la baïonnette!
well, he never bothered to learn how to properly write in french, his birth name was napoleone di buonaparte, he spoke with french with an italian accent and is of complete italian (genoese iirc) descent. i’m sure he saw himself as corscian more than anything early in his life, but he dedicated his life to being the fucking emperor of the french and, as someone else pointed out, his last words mentioned france (not corsica).
tl:dr early life corsican, later life probably french, never considered himself italian
he saw himself as a kharkivian

considering yourself Corsican is the same as considering yourself Italian. it's like saying you consider yourself a Bavarian but never a German.
