Pozzo di Borgo

Pozzo di Borgo, Count (1764-1842), full name Carlo Andrea Pozzo di Borgo, was a French politician who was the lifelong enemy of Napoleon, born in Ajaccio, Corsica. He was a partisan of Paoli. He was obliged to flee from Corsica, took refuge in London, in Vienna, and then in Russia, and plotted everywhere to compass the ruin of his arch-enemy. He seduced, out of simple hatred of him, Bernadotte from the service of Napoleon, and egged on the allies against France. He represented Russia at the Congress of Vienna, and died in Paris.
