Napoleon is not a name for a pig!

It is forbidden to call a pig Napoleon in France. This law dates back to the 19th century. Historians do not precisely date this prohibition: during the First or Second Empire. On the other hand, no trace of this law in the 1855 Code Napoléon. But the animal is associated with the garbage and the farm, so we should not tarnish the image of the Emperor
