French Revolution/Napoleon Unit Exam con.
4. Explain in detail Napoleon’s foreign policies and agenda. Did his plan for uniting Europe succeed? What, if any, mistakes did he make? What finally happened to Napoleon and what was his legacy for Europe as a whole?
In a nutshell, Napoleon wanted to conquer the world. He would first start in Europe, then work his way through the continents. His intentions were to spread the Enlightenment ideas that were put into effect in France during the Revolution, such as public education and the right to own and strive for property, and at first, he was doing quite well. Napoleon subjugated most of continental Europe, and was the most powerful man in the continent in the early 1800’s.
Of course, Napoleon made a few drastic mistakes, and these mistakes led to the eventual doom of the French Empire. It can be all summed up by his decision to invade Russia, first initiated because of the tsar’s noncompliance with France’s request to restrict trade with Britain and because of Napoleon’s lust for power and glory. He invaded with over 600,000 troops, yet he left with only a pitiful fraction of his soldiers. The main reasons for this include the cold Russian winter, lack of efficient supply lines, exhaustion from long marches through the vast nation, and the constant harassment by Russian soldiers.
Napoleon lost a very experienced and effective army in Russia. The army he raised afterwards was not nearly as efficient, and as a result, Napoleon’s enemies organized a coalition to overthrow him. In the spring of 1814, they were successful, and Napoleon was exiled to Elba. However, being the ambitious man that he was, he returned to France, and desperately tried to regain his power. He was defeated again at Waterloo in June 1815, and was banished to Saint Helena. He would live here for the last six years of his life.
The legacy of Napoleon would live on. He brought the nation of France to greatness from turmoil. He also conquered virtually all of continental Europe, save for Russia and the Ottoman Empire. He brought Enlightenment ideas to much of Europe – ideas that had first caused the Revolution in France in the first place. This would lead to new stirrings in other European nations, and the eventual collapse of the European monarchies.

Case Study Analysis Paper
Background
Project Setting
Acting as a subject matter expert on criminal investigation, you
have been asked to assist in the creation of a simulation
exercise of a multijurisdictional criminal investigation. Some of
the preliminary work has already been completed. Your specific
task is to compile the post investigation review document
(rubric) to be used by exercise assessors in their evaluation of
the quality of the criminal investigation. This is what you know:
A series of 11 random explosions have occurred in an area that
traverses two states, and a total of seven counties (five counties
in one state and two counties in the other state), embracing a
total of nine cities and incorporated towns. The explosions
resulted in five deaths, 32 injuries, and significant property
damage. In each case, the explosion was detonated remotely.
The lead investigative agency is the Virtual, Maryland, Police
Department, because the first three explosions occurred within
its jurisdiction. VPD has about 100 sworn personnel, including
17 all-purpose detective investigators. It has a certified forensic
laboratory for rudimentary analysis, staffed by credentialed
civilians. Ultimately, two suspects were identified and
apprehended, one adult male and one teenage (minor) male.
Statements were made by each, resulting in investigative
searches and seizures of forensic evidence. Both subjects
3. eventually confessed to their respective and collective parts in
the crimes.
Assessors in the simulation exercise will be debriefing the role
players as to their actions; their understanding of the legal
basis, purpose, and advantages and disadvantages of their
investigative strategies; and the conduct of the investigation.
The assessors have already come up with a series of questions
for the participants. You have been asked to provide the
"model" answer against which the responses of the participants
will be graded.
Following are the questions to be posed by the simulation
exercise assessors to the investigators:
1. Investigative Task Force
1. Assuming that legal authority was not an issue, should this
investigation be conducted by VPD personnel or a
multijurisdictional task force?
2. At what point should the potential of establishing an
investigative task force be considered?
3. What are the advantages and disadvantages of an
investigative task force?
4. Who, or what entities, should be involved in the decision to
create an investigative task force?
5. Assuming, on balance, that you favor a task force approach,
what difficulties do you foresee, and how will each be
addressed?
6. What demands and/or concessions should VPD exercise in
order to employ a cooperative task force in this particular case?
2. Legal Issues
1. What legal issues should be considered when embarking on a
task force investigative strategy?
2. How are each of these issues resolved?
1. Forensic Evidence Collection and Analysis
1. Without regard to individual items of forensic evidence,
describe the steps necessary to ensure that items, materials, and
samples are eligible as forensic evidence in a criminal
proceeding.
4. 2. Why?
3. In what ways do the evidence collection procedures differ at
the scenes of the explosions versus the residences of each of the
suspects?
D. Testimonial Evidence
1. Describe the steps necessary to ensure that verbal or written
communications from each of the suspects are eligible as
testimonial evidence in a criminal proceeding.
2. Describe the direct and indirect consequences if the
testimonial evidence is deemed inadmissible by the trial court.
E. Public Information
1. As the investigation proceeds, in general terms, what
information is or is not available to
· non-VPD members of the task force?
· other law enforcement agencies?
· family members of the deceased and injured victims?
· credentialed news reporters?
· community members?
2. Who should be the point of contact for investigative
information, and how should that designation be decided?
Project Assignment
You will compose a comprehensive "model" response for each
of the questions posed by the simulation exercise assessors.
Note: This project submission is enhanced by outside resources
that support the appropriateness of the model responses.
Creditable resources and citations (or lack thereof) will be
graded accordingly.
