Question

“Bismarck was a more autocratic leader than Napoleon III.”

Do you agree? Give reasons for your answer.

Answer 1

No. Napoleon III was a more autocratic leader. He gave his country two decades of prosperity under an authoritarian government but finally led it to defeat in the Franco-German War. The French Revolution military leader was notorious for his autocratic leadership style. He commanded a huge army without sharing his ideas with anyone.
