Certainly not a native speaker. I don't see any reason to think he was a fluent speaker of one either.

Nice! I just started reading one of the more well-regarded Napoleon biographies so when that question was passed it piqued my interest. The Napoleonic Wars have always been something I’m less well-versed on compared to most history buffs.

How do we feel about a multi-ball round? I actually have one ready to go if people are interested but I don’t want to snipe Spartaculous if they had one in mind as well.

You are very welcome to do a multi-ball round! I haven't really been on the guessing side of one yet, and would be looking forward to doing so.

Alright! I will get the thread up soon. I think I will tweak the rules to make my version a little easier because I don’t want it to be too tough.

Yes, feel free to tweak the rules however you want to. You're the QM! There's no standard here.
