What are 3 similarities of Robespierre and Napoleon?
Leni [432]

Robespierre was an idealist: he wanted to create and establish a Utopian society. The power he came to wield, went to his head, and was the cause of his downfall.  

Napoleon was a pragmatist: intent on both self-aggrandizement, and the glorification of France. Needless to say from a practical point of view, the latter was far more successful than the former.
