The French people are this week remembering former Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte amidst a highly divisive debate about his legacy 200 years ago.
President Emmanuel Macron declared Napoleon Bonaparte an existential part of France after laying a wreath at his tomb in Paris on Wednesday.
Macron waited until the last minute to announce his plans for the bicentenary which was preceded by fierce arguments between those who wanted a celebration and others who called for a boycott.
“Napoleon Bonaparte is a part of us,” said Macron in a speech at the Institut de France following the ceremony.
