Napoleon's invasion was on June 25th.
Hitler's June 22nd.
Charles was in a coma during the decisive battle and couldn't lead his men. The battle that ended his campaign took place on July 8th.

Monarchists all over Europe were shitting their pants over the French Revolution. It was a threat to the divine right of Kings.
So they attacked France in order to put a Bourbon puppet on the French throne. Napoleon took control of a chaotic France and repelled the foreign acts of aggression.
He spread constitutions, the metric system, and cheap sugar beet sugar to all of Europe.
