I think it’s hard not to admire, at least to some degree someone who was so *impactful*. In many ways, the 19th and even 20th ce. are history in the wake of Napoleon, just as the Diadochi period was history in the wake of Alexander. He just changed everything
I dunno, Hitler and Stalin were both very impactful and 'changed everything' - just not for the better. I tend to judge rulers by weighing their positive and negative impacts against each other and making a decision on the net. Alexander's net seems negative to me.
I have no real objections to that. Although I would say that I’d consider Napoleon’s abolishment of serfdom throughout Continental Europe, along with the spread of liberal ideals, would make up for many of his sins.
As for Alexander, it’s always difficult for me, when they existed so far in the past, to make that theoretical pro/con. He changed so much that it feels almost impossible to do a contrafactual about what we’d have if he didn’t exist.
