While both Hitler and Napoleon were interested in world domination, their beliefs, and ideologies of lay on opposite sides of the political spectrum. Adolf Hitler preferred traditional, extreme right-wing values while Napoleon Bonaparte had what were considered “progressive” political values at the time of his reign. As the leader of the Nazi Party of Germany, Hitler articulated for lebensraum- the need for Germany to expand, autarky- the idea that Germany should be self-sufficient, and the need to abolish the Treaty of Versailles. In addition, Hitler believed that a German "Aryan" race was superior, rendering all other races inferior and unequal. Napoleon Bonaparte, on the other hand, did not share the same beliefs regarding races as Hitler.
