Napolean's theorm

Hmm....quite strange. At first thought I believed Napoleon's theorem was something which describes how to rule a country successfully or how to conquer a large continent. I guess anybody would think the same..but astonishingly its a simple theory on Geometry. Crazy! isn't it? And the theory goes like this. Take any triangle, draw an equilateral triangle through each of its edges as the base. A triangle through the centroid of these equilateral triangle will be an equilateral triangle.
Anyway nice to hear but still its a debated issue whether he is the once who really contributed to its proof or anyone else during his ruling to please.
