Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Napoleon Bonaparte caused the French Revolution of 1789?

No. Multiple reference and peer-reviewed sources place Napoleon as a young officer who supported the Revolution in 1789 and rose to power only afterward, with the Revolution's causes attributed to Louis XVI, the aristocracy, and economic crisis. No source supports the claim that Napoleon caused the 1789 Revolution.
