In 1798, during the French Revolutionary Wars, General Napoleon Bonaparte led a French expedition to Egypt. The plan was to conquer the wealthy province and deal a major blow to British interests in the Mediterranean. What followed was a campaign featuring legendary battles, ruthless occupation and immense hardship.

Thank you for this masterpiece
@@EvilEgg331i completely agree with you on that.
It’s great to see the channel having the budget for so many vids! In the last 13 months we’ve had Napoleon in Italy, The Abbasids, the Decembrists, Eylau, Kolchak, and now this! You have some of the most consistently high quality content of any history TH-cam channel!

Hands down the best channel on the Napoleonic wars yet. Kings & Generals is also fantastic.

After having seen the latest Napoleon blockbuster film.. it’s truly delightful to see someone who truly portrays Napoleon accuretly and correctly. Well Done Epic History!
I know but this doesn’t even change the fact that Giroud, a French professional footballer who plays for AC Milan, at some point this season has better goal keeper rating than Manchester United goal keeper Onana

Napoleon's story has much more engaging plot than most (if not all) shows I've seen. And narration only makes it better.
And that's why the story must never be told properly and with honesty. Because then the Leftoids will realize that actual history is based and awesome and thus they will abandon the communist narrative.
France literally just sent this man on a side quest
This video had more action than the battle scene in Ridley Scott’s movie when Napoleon went to Egypt. The entire “battle” consisted of Napoleon, shooting two cannons shots at the pyramids. I was so excited for this movie, but really, Scott just took something that had so much potential and flushed it down the toilet.
Scott's movie is simply anti-French propaganda at this point : the battle of the Pyramids actually happened miles away from both the Pyramids and the Sphinx, why would Scott have Napoleon shoot at them except to make him despicable to the viewer? His whole movie is a mess.
Im hoping the Spielberg project is good.
@@Aspett0 Anti French only he also make anti other great power too.
Not to mention even to his nation UK . Damm the Pensular War was disgraceful and best of all was Waterloo.

Your presentation of these epic times in history is unmatched. The animations, maps, art work, diagrams, charts, voice work, research, etc. are all so well done.
These videos are part of history themselves now, and as visual media becomes more popular, it’s something future generations are blessed to have.
Ya how foes it end he just leaves
7:10 Thomas-Alexandre Dumas was also the father of famed French author Alexandre Dumas, the author of "The Three Musketeers". He used his father (who died in Napoleon's bad graces in his youth - the elder Dumas often verbally clashed with Napoleon during the campaign, so the latter let him rot for several years in a Neapolitan prison after he was captured returning from Egypt, before securing his release) as the model for the Count of Monte Cristo in the book of the same name.
23:40 The description of Talleyrand as "brilliant, urbane, and slippery" is probably the best description I've ever heard for him, other than Napoleon's infamous scatological tirade.
There was also the General Hugo which was the father of Victor Hugo, the French author of "Les Misérables" and "Notre Dame de Paris" (Quasimodo, Esmeralda, Frollo, Fébus, etc...)
I imagine if of the same name in a contemporary conflict his opposites would give him the moniker Dumb Ass.
I was surprised they didn’t mention Dumas is the father of such a famed author.

After seeing the Ridley Scott movie… A new Napoleonic episode by Epic History TV is exáctly what we need! 👌
It’s so cool seeing the names of Napoleon’s future Marshals pop up in these early years, especially how they distinguish themselves
All through merit.. it's truly an epic story
Kleber would have been among the greatest. He held Egypt alone with a small force after Napoleon's departure, winning battles against all odds. Sadly he was assassinated and never made it back to France.
Yes since the campaign in Italy the list of would-be Marshals has grown considerably. A lot of what-if’s - Ducat, LaHarpe, Joubert, Dumas, Kléber, DeSaix, LaSalle.
FINALLY DAVOUT AND DESAIX APPEAR, GREAT VIDEO GUYS
Yes. Finally something about two of Napoleon's best commanders. In Egypt, all important battles were arranged by Desaix, as well as later the Battle of Marengo.

A brilliant military genius. A tactical mad dog. One man, who irrevocably changed the course of human history before he was even 40, only rivaled by Alexander himself. As one of Anglo descent themselves, you can't help but have a tinge of admiration that mankind could put forth such a stalwart soul.
General Bonaparte is beyond compare to a Macedonian upstart. Only a few can compare, first among them Arthur Wellesley, First Duke of Wellington.
Can't thank God enough for this amazing channel. Truly appreciate your efforts guys. ❤

Does Yahweh, and his dad El enjoy watching Epic History. 🤔
This is one of the best history channels on TH-cam cannot say how much I appreciate the content y’all produce. Especially on Napoleon
Over the years Epic History has nailed a formula, like a sine curve, of context, then action. Your episodic pacing is great, too. Within 30 seconds of the start of every video I’m engaged and excited, and at the end of every video I’m excited to know what’s next, and to know more. You’ve done incredible work, and as you can tell from the comments, you have lots of grateful fans!
Well said!
Calm down, sine curve.
We're fortunate that something so addictive is also good for us!
This is one of the best historical episodes on all of TH-cam.
A masterpiece comparable to Hannibal's Cannae or Napoléon's Austerlitz.
Epic History TV and HistoryMarche these are two of the best history channels in the world.
I'm delighted.
Kings and Generals is also up there
@@sidp5381 Yes.
And Flash point history and Invicta and Historia Civialis.
@@flashgordon6670 I tend to watch more of HistoryMarche, Invicta, House of History, and sometimes Historia Civialis. Those channels help other new TH-camrs jump-start their own historical channel. Moreover, HistoryMarche and Invictus do very good analysis videos regarding controversial decisions, etc.
Most tend to follow the narration route (like EPTV), covering one narrative by specific people (tends to not consider other potential scenarios or alternative narrations that get harshly pushed aside or erased from events due to the victors writing the history books). At least everyone has their own preferences, and channels have their own niche on TH-cam. All of them are great to watch
The comparison to Hannibal is particularly apt, considering how in both wars Hannibal and Napoleon won three massive tactical victories (Trebia, Lake Trasimene, Cannae for Hannibal, and Pyramids, Mount Tabor, 1799 Aboukir for Napoleon) but only for ephemeral strategic results (control over part of Italy for Hannibal, control over Egypt for Napoleon). Both commanders were cut off, which forced them to wage war with a lack of reinforcements and support from their home country (although Hannibal _did_ receive some reinforcements, and Rome was fighting a war on multiple fronts). Both commanders were also lacking in siege equipment at crucial points in their war, which led to Napoleon's failure at Acre and convinced Hannibal against a siege of Rome. And as Napoleon was stopped at Acre, Hannibal was stopped by Roman forces at Nola, and while neither failure meant a total collapse of the French or Carthaginian position, both signaled a turning point of the war to a strategic stalemate that benefited the side that could rebuild themselves.
I'd say the biggest difference between the two is the geography, with Hannibal's campaigns generally concentrated on the Italian peninsula while the French forces under Napoleon penetrated over 1,000 km inland thanks to the Nile. Hannibal also faced stronger opposition in the form of the Romans, but the terrible quality of the Ottoman forces is also somewhat exaggerated. Only six years after the French left Egypt, the British sent the Fraser expedition to conquer Egypt for themselves, only to never penetrate past the coast and get outright defeated in battle multiple times by an Egyptian force they outnumbered, suffering more losses as a raw number and as a proportion than the Egyptians, despite having naval superiority and receiving reinforcements. Hannibal also had a somewhat superior grand strategic position, with Rome facing a war on multiple fronts against an alliance of Macedon and Carthage that on paper was much larger than it (although we know that effectively, the total resources of this alliance were never properly coordinated), while Napoleon faced a coordinated effort by Britain and the Ottoman Empire.
Such an immersive experience to fire up a huge jibber and bang an episode of Napoleonic Epic History. Great job all
Thank you from France for telling in a such intelligent and nuanced point of view the great story of our Emperor🇫🇷

Love the Napoleon content. I got hooked with Eylau and have been researching and watching ever since
Been waiting For this one for a long te me! Thanks as always For your dedication! 🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I adore this series, the story of Napoleon is the most interesting in history to me
Napoleon had immense skill no doubt, but holy shit he was so goddamn LUCKY too. That story of Nelson just missing him TWICE made me laugh.
Goes to show how much history’s great figures are made my sheer chance as well as skill
There are also many stories of Napoleon being literally inches from death like at Toulon
I guess it was for reasons that the latin saying "Fortune favors the bold" came about.
historians are not entirely sure, there is a debate that Nelson actually let Napoleon reach Egypt. In the hope he would die there with his armee. And to get the Ottoman Empire on Britain's side.
@@bretonneux3389 Could probably be possible who knows. I often notice though. That debates on historical events tend to be comfortably looking in hindsight of history through many sources and from many sides. Meaning. It is easy to come up with theories when you already know the outcome. Being in the moment as things are happening. And being blind to all circumstances, particularly that of the enemy.
Then the decision like that by Nelson would be a game of hazard. To me it sounds more like attempts to elevate his genius. Such things have been done with all historical figures. The same goes for critique as well. Experts calls something a mistake, but fail to put themselves in the position at the moment when the decision is being taken - by a person who doesn't have the luxury of being able to see into the future. As experts can look back in time and judge an outcome.
@@Tyrfingr ofc. But historians tend to have this theory, precisely because of the succession of miracles that allowed Napoleon to escape Nelson during his journey. It's such an amount of luck it becomes suspicious.
We need Part 2 ASAP.

@@askfaisalmuslim i edited it.
The sounds and the narrations make these series incredible, as well as the explanation of every battle ❤

Bravo! Another victory for your channel. I was reading about the Boxer rebellion the other day and realized what a perfect mini series that would make for your channel.
I’ve been so excited for the Epic History presentation on Napoleon in Egypt, Thankyou so much!
Well done! Splendid video, thank you for continuing to elaborate on Napoleon's campaigns!
"The Black Devil" is also the father of the great author Alexandre Dumas. Writer of the The Three Musketeers and The Count of Monte Cristo.
I recommend reading The Black Count by Tom Reiss if you want to learn more about him!
Fascinating individual Tomas Alexandre Dumas and, as mentioned, interesting background. His father, a white French aristocrat, and mother, an enslaved African woman. Despite the appearance of then Saint-Domingue (Haiti) pre-1791 of slavery white French aristocrats or settlers often mixed or had relationships with enslaved women that resulted in mixed race children. When they had become of age, often the children's fathers would emancipate, (free) them to take over their estates or sent them to be educated in France where slavery was illegal since 1315. This system contrasts sharply with the American slavery system, where these situations would be rare and virtually unheard of.
It's impressive to witness the channel's ability to consistently produce a variety of videos. In the past 13 months, we've been treated to content on topics such as Napoleon in Italy, The Abbasids, the Decembrists, Eylau, Kolchak, and now this! Your commitment to delivering top-notch quality is truly commendable, making your history TH-cam channel stand out as one of the best!" 📚🎥🌟
I have watched this around 75 times as classwork and to find info for my homework, I basically have it memorized

FINALLY EGYPT!! I've been waiting for this one. Thanks so much
17:47 Naval Battle of Nile is one of most complate decisive naval victories of any era , upturning strategic situation and Napoleon's position in Egypt complately and made Royal Navy dominant naval force in Mediterranean Sea. Nelson actually only had 13 ships of line when he ordered to attack on French squadron in Aboukir bay on the evening of 1st August 1798 (one of British ships of line HMS Culloden grounded on shallows en route before Alexandria and did not participate the battle) and furthermore Nelson had no frigates while Admiral Bureys commanding French squadron had four frigates which he could put up a combat patrol offshore and he did not so and caught unprepared.
nelson was a thorn in napoleon's ass
Nothing compared to 1918 that was a naval triumph unequalled in all history 😑
Yes useless to win all the battles. Napoleon had some lacunae with the logistic.
In modern time Mers el Kebir 1940
@@barbararice6650I’d say the real decisive battle for Britain was at Trafalgar. The French and Spanish fleets were so completely defeated, Spain ceased to be a significant naval power and France was basically eternally neutered in all naval matters. It wouldn’t be until the US’s prosperity in the 20th century that Britain was dethroned.
@@restitutororbis964
I didn't say decisive I said triumphant, when was an enemy navy so scared to fight it mutinied and its ships dragged off as a trophy 😑

And now its here
You guys are the Best ! LOVE your Napoleónic videos 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
Napoleon's quotes are the best. Thanks for including them in your videos! In my opinion, they say much more about his character than what was portrayed in the Ridley Scott movie. A is A.
This hase become my most favorite channel on youtube. By far.
Since he didn't mention. Battle of the Nile-Battle of Aboukir Bay (the Naval battle mentioned in the video) is one of the most stunning victory by Admiral Nelson.
So basically at the Mediterranean Sea near the mouth of the Nile River in Egypt. The French fleet, commanded by Admiral François-Paul, was anchored in a strong defensive position in Aboukir Bay. The French believed they were safe, with their ships arranged in a line parallel to the coast (basically a Wall of Canons Along the Coast forcing a British to a naval duel) offering protection from an attack by sea.
But FOR SOME REASON NELSON DESTROYED THAT ASSUMPTION.
Nelson, leading a fleet of British warships, executed a bold and unexpected maneuver. He noticed gaps in the French line (The ship at the top of the line with its head pointing to the peak of Aboukir Bay) and the shallow waters that were thought to be impassable for Big Flagships vessels. Nelson daringly navigated his fleet in a line along the coast straight at the opposite direction of french, and splitting his fleet, with more than 1/3 of fleet pierce through these gaps (basically a 1-man-size gap (in this case, ship)), and others on the facing the French heads on, by this, he positioned his ships on both sides of the French line. This allowed the British to fire from both sides in a fierce and devastating attack. (imagine the 300 scene where the Spartans line up the army between the mountains so if the Persian wanted to pass, they have to go fight through them, but Nelson see a gap near one of the side of the mountain, pushed many soliders through this little gap that barely fit swiftly and flanked the Spartans on both side ... yeah ... not to mention the water is extremely shallow)
The battle unfolded into the night, illuminated by the flashes of cannon fire. The French fleet was caught off guard and suffered heavy damage. The British ships relentlessly bombarded their French counterparts, causing chaos and destruction (Getting bombarded from both side especially from the side near the coast with extremely shallow water that you thought is where your friends are for me is EXTREMELY CONFUSING for the French, especially, all this happened at night). The French flagship, 'L'Orient,' suffered a catastrophic explosion, serving as a dramatic climax to the battle.
By the end of the engagement, the French fleet was decimated, losing several ships, including their flagship, while the British suffered far fewer casualties. Nelson's victory at the Battle of the Nile effectively cut off Napoleon’s army in Egypt from reinforcements and support from France, significantly weakening French strategic positions in the Mediterranean.
WHAT A MAD LAD!
You guys should check out the animation recreating the battle from TH-cam
The french admiral did very poorly tbh. Though the captain of the tonnant showed incredible bravery, coming back after getting his foot shot off, and demanding the french flag be nailed to the mast to prevent it being brought down, before the blood loss took him
Much needed relief after the latest assault on historical accuracy by the film industry. I cannot thank you enough for your Napoleonic series. We can all agree that what's actually needed is a Napoleon Dramatic Series instead of a simple movie... and hereby I propose you as military history advisor if it's ever made
