Bonaparte, (Marie-Annonciade-) Caroline (sh)




born March 25, 1782, Ajaccio, Corsica
died May 18, 1839, Florence

Queen of Naples (1808-15).

The youngest sister of Napoleon, she married Joachim Murat in 1800. Her ambitious Nature was partially responsible for her husband's becoming king of Naples, among Other achievements. Her relations with Napoleon became strained as she associated herself with Murat's shifting allegiances in 1814-15, which led to his execution. Caroline then took refuge in Trieste and became countess de Lipona.
