Gauss was one of the first mathematicians to prove the fundamental theorem of algebra, which holds that every polynomial over the complex numbers must have at least one root. Gauss also collaborated with physicist [[Wilhelm Weber]] tho help discover magnetism and define it in terms of mass, length and time. Gauss influenced a Russian mathematician named Nikolai I. Lobachevsky (1792-1856). Lobachevsky invented non-Euclidean geometry and used some of Gauss's ideas to develop it. Gauss was a devout Christian and supported monarchy and opposed Napoleon, whom he saw as an outgrowth of the revolution.
