Year of Birth: 1781
Eugène Rose de Beauharnais was born on September 3, 1781, in Paris, France. He was the son of Alexandre de Beauharnais and Joséphine Tascher de la Pagerie, who later became the first wife of Napoleon Bonaparte.
Beauharnais was raised in a time of political upheaval in France, with the French Revolution taking place during his early years. Despite these challenges, he received a good education and developed a talent for military strategy and diplomacy.
At the age of 17, Beauharnais entered the military and quickly rose through the ranks. He fought in numerous battles alongside his stepfather, Napoleon Bonaparte, and earned a reputation for his bravery and strategic thinking.
In 1805, Beauharnais was appointed Viceroy of Italy by Napoleon, a position he held until 1814. During his time in Italy, he implemented various reforms and modernizations, earning him the respect and admiration of the Italian people.
After Napoleon's defeat in 1814, Beauharnais was forced to abdicate his position as Viceroy and retire to private life. He spent his remaining years in Switzerland, where he focused on writing and reflecting on his experiences in the military and politics.
Eugène Rose de Beauharnais passed away on February 21, 1824, leaving behind a legacy as a skilled military leader and statesman who played a crucial role in European history during the early 19th century. His contributions to the French Empire and Italy continue to be remembered and celebrated today.
