    I love that Beethoven is playing in the backround, given how Beethoven hated Napoloeon, scratching his name off the Emperor Concerto. Nice touch :D

    I always thought I hated history as a kid, but as I grew older I realized it's because all but a handful of my teachers actually had any passion or flair for history. You good sir provide that passion and flair that keeps people like me interested and watching. Never stop.

    You are right about Napoleons height. He died while being held by the Brits. The British and French used two different measuring systems. After his death, the Brits measured him at 5’2”-3. When his body was returned to the French, he was measured at the correct 5’6”-7”.

    • @brianboru2762
      @brianboru2762 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      The way I always heard it was that the French Inch was bigger than the British Inch so when the French measurement system showed he was 5'-2" the British ran with the propaganda gold mine. It also didn't help that many of the portraits he himself commissioned had him with the Imperial Guard, the elite Infantry of the French army. To even qualify for consideration to joining the guard you had to be at LEAST 6' (British Inches) in height so an average-sized man among some of the biggest men France had to offer is going to look puny no matter what.

    • @ms1535
      @ms1535 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      His height is really a moot point. The Army followed him because he proved over and over that he was a more capable leader than the Generals above him. His youth was spent reading about ancient warfare, strategy and logistics.He learned to study the land and choose the place of battle like the Greeks and Romans. He mastered the artillery, one of the most physically demanding and dangerous units to join.
      When asked to end the French Royalist Uprising;
      He warned: “Don’t ask me to do this”.
      “When I draw my sword, I won’t sheath it until I have crushed the Rebellion”

    From hating the French to becoming their emperor - that alone is a conquest! Napoleone Buonaparte, son of an originally Tuscan family, updating his name to sound more French, joining the army and becoming the father of today's military Corps, Division, etc, using the Julius Caesar playbook to take over France, beat up Europe, and actually came close to winning Waterloo despite even the weather up against him. He even defeated himself which led to his downfall as it all went to his head. That's winning.

      Also you were a bit off on Waterloo. His army was excellent (it was largely old veterans including the only time the Imperial Guard was beaten, he also had cavalry but Ney commanded them and Grouchy had them at Wavre too which was also Napoleon's fault), he was facing an inferior army initially but he and Ney made huge tactical errors prior to the battle at Ligny and Quatre Bras. He fought on Wellington's terms and could not break his line before Blucher arrived.

    Enjoyed the presentation, but there were a few issues. Two examples: 1) Napoleon didn't defeat all royalists in France, just the royalist mob that tried to attack the National Convention (government) in Paris in 1795. He actually refused a command to put down some royalists, which caused him to be removed from the rolls of active officers, which is why he was in Paris without a command when the attack happened. He was tasked by the government with gathering available troops and cannon, which he did and repelled the royalists with, "A whiff of grapeshot." This act is what got him the appointment as the commander of the Army of Italy. 2) As for Trafalgar, Napoleon was planning to invade England and gathered his armies in northern France, but couldn't gather sufficient transport or gain naval superiority to make it happen. Trafalgar happened months later when Napoleon had already moved his army to fight Austria and Russia in the Austerlitz campaign. Trafalgar established complete British control of the seas, but wasn't the reason Napoleon didn't invade England as portrayed. All in all, not a bad presentation despite the discrepancies. You managed to cover in 32 minutes what Ridley Scott failed to do in 2 hours and 38 minutes.

      Dude they literally skipped his entire Italian Campaign, the entire Leipzig Campaign, the entire 6 day Campaign, the ENTIRE PENINSULAR WAR, and they showed extreme inaccuracy in nearly EVERYTHING. He wasn’t at Marie Antoinette’s execution, he wasn’t a scared wimp at Toulon, and he wasn’t a guy who would slap his wife or his servant. He just wasn’t that guy. They tried to destroy his reputation and it had largely succeeded in modern culture, showing him as a short bloodthirsty angry wimp.

      @@wyattcole5452it’s not that it was a bad film. It’s that it could have been a great film. Gladiator is a great film. This was just good. Napoleons story without Hollywood magic is so tragic it writes itself, the real life Caesar in the mold from Shakespeare, but yet the film is just good. Just my opinion

      ​​@@wyattcole5452This movie was about as accurate as a blind parapelegic archer. The character of Napolean was the exact opposite of what Scott showed. This is a terrible film.

    Great overview of Napoleon! 😊 It also makes the recent Napoleon movie look so bad because the film is so inaccurate, most of it fabricated fiction, yet the truth is way more interesting than the fiction. Ridley Scott should've just stuck with the facts since the actual historical facts are already super fascinating.
