Also known as little man syndrome or lms. When a small guy tries to be tough because he's shorter than average or small of stature. (Taken from the name Napoleon, who was just a few inches over 5 feet tall and tended to blow people up and start wars.) See Napoleonic War.
Rick had a case of napoleonism beacuse he was only 5'5". He didn't need to be so tough, 'cause he was a great and kind friend who would do anything for you. Unfortunately, people still look down upon short people, and he took this personally.

Napoleonic Complex

An insanity that usually affects people of small stature. People with napoleonic complex are easily intimidated by tall, muscular people. To make themselves feel 'bigger', they in turn pick on taller, muscular people.

Also called Short Man Syndrome.

Napoleonic Complex was named after the french emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, who overcompensated for his short stature by waging war, often for no reason (???). French people seem to be the main victims of this condition, as Nicolas Sarkozy appears to have it as well.
Angie, who was 6 feet tall at the age of 12, was frequently made fun of by pretty much everyone under the height of 4'11''. to make the most of the situation, she informed the shorties that their anger wasn't their fault, they were simply victims of the Napoleonic Complex.

Napoleonic bullying

A form of bullying where everyone else is the bully and you are the righteous. Napoleonic bullying isn't considered true bullying, it is what many would consider socially acceptable bullying. Napoleonic bullying is not always committed by short folks.
Napoleonic bully- I call out bitch ass bullies when I see em, you're the bully not me.
Other kid-There's people who will laugh at your shit, every now and then one of them will stand up to you though, even if it doesn't happen to you much. Your Napoleonic bullying is showing.

Napoleonismo

-To do a Napoleonismo is to jinx on purpose to screw your team over in a critical stage of a season.

-Doing a Napoleonismo can also mean you show your gargantuan obsession for AC Milan as they are better than Juve in every way.
