I was born August 15th 1769 in Ajaccio, Corsica. I was the fourth child for my parents Carlo Maria di Buonaparte and Maria Letizia Ramolino. In 1779 I was enrolled in a religous school. Later, I was accepted into a military school at Brienne-le-Château. Altough I was teased throughout school for not being able to speak fluent french, I graduated and was accepted into the elite École Militaire in Paris. I began to train as an artillery officer. I completed the two year course in one year and was then commissioned as a second lieutenant in La Fère artillery regiment. This was just the beginning of my great reign as Emperor.
