The Rosetta Stone was found by French soldiers under the command of Pierre-François Bouchard during the construction of a fort near the town of Rashid. This ancient slab, inscribed with three different scripts, became the key to deciphering Egyptian hieroglyphs, though it was later seized by British forces after the French defeat in Egypt.

Napoleon was actually about 5 feet 6 inches (1.68 meters) tall, which was average or even slightly above average for a French man at the time. The myth of his extreme shortness arose from a confusion between French inches and British inches, as well as British wartime propaganda caricatures that depicted him as tiny.
