章 226: Update to the People

On April 5th, 1801, in the capital city of the Republic of France, Napoleon Bonaparte, accompanied by his wife and children, stood amidst the bustling construction site of the Arc de Triomphe, located near the Champs-Élysées.

The surroundings were marked by the emerging thoroughfares that would eventually encircle the Arc de Triomphe. The ongoing construction endeavors aimed to widen the streets, paving the way for the creation of new boulevards that were now in the midst of active development.

The area around the construction site buzzed with the enthusiastic supporters of Napoleon Bonaparte. His adept leadership had propelled France to a period of ascendancy, achieved through a series of triumphant military campaigns.

Aside from Napoleon's family, standing behind him were the Minister of Urban Development and Infrastructure Pierre-François-Xavier Bouchard, and the Minister of Police, Joseph Fouché.
