Napoleon was one of the greatest and most famous leaders in all of human history. But have you ever heard of the wacky antics his nephew got up to, who also became emperor of the French.

Notes an Disclaimers:
1.The big brown German states in a conglomeration of much smaller
ones that I couldn't be bothered drawing the boarders of
2. Apologies for forgetting the Belgium started existing in 1830
3. Yes I know I messed up the Venetian border, please forgive me
