That One Red Spot
Power. That's what mattered most to Napoleon.
He wanted power. And he got it. Under his
leadership, the armies of France won some
stunning victories and extended control well
beyond their borders. But it wasn't enough for
Napoleon. He knew there was one thing, one
force that stood in his way. It is said that one
day he gathered all his top officers together
around this large table. Laid across that table
was a map of Europe - with a big red spot on it.
That spot was England. And pounding his fist
on the table, Napoleon raged: "If it weren't for
that red spot, I could have it all!"
