Zurlo served as Minister of Justice of the Two Sicilies in 1809 and as Interior Minister of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies 1809-15 & 1820. Murat served as both a Marshal of France and Admiral of France under the reign of Napoleon I. He received his titles, most notably as King of Naples (1808-15) partially by being Napoleon's brother-in-law (he had married the Emperor's beloved younger sister in 1800) as well as by personal merit.

Murat was executed in 1815 proclaiming, at the time of his death, 'Soldiers! Do your duty! Straight to the heart but spare the face. Fire!'
