## Bio

Born 21 May 1775, the third surviving son of Carlo Bonaparte and Letizia Ramolino, Lucien grew up in Corsica before the Revolution opened paths his family name alone never could. By 1799 he had climbed to Minister of the Interior and president of the Council of Five Hundred—the legislative body meant to check executive power. On 18 Brumaire that year, he used the position to orchestrate the coup that dissolved the council itself and installed Napoleon as first consul, arguing down resistance and summoning troops when deputies resisted. The maneuver succeeded; the republic ended. He died 29 June 1840, a prince by title, a kingmaker by act, the brother who opened the door and then watched someone else walk through it.
