Why did Nietzsche admire Napoleon I Bonaparte (Emperor of France [1804-1815])

What if Germany was unified when Napoleon became emperor of France?
In our timeline Napoleon became French emperor and ran havoc through continental Europe. He defeated the Austrians, Prussians and steamrolled the dozens of various German states that were in the HRE. 1/3 of the army Napoleon used to invade Russia were Germans.
But what if the Austrian empire, Prussia, and the various German states that remained in HRE were a unified and centralized country? Could a unified Germany have stopped Napoleon or would he still have conquered half of Europe? Also if Germany had won against Napoleon how would the peace treaty look like? And what would be the effects of a 70 years earlier unified Germany be on history?

How could a France embroiled in a revolution shaking the entire country still prevail in the first two Wars of Coalition before unity under Napoleon?
It seems odd to me that a nation that is having such a deadly revolution where its Republican Governments were still on shaky ground able to muster not only the men and resources for war, but have the capacity to outwit and defeat nations not suffering such a deadly revolution.
