ASMR The Age of Napoleon (history, map tracing, soft spoken)

  • Small man, much chaos! Let's have a look at the changes Napoleon brought to the European continent and specifically at the developments he triggered in the former Holy Roman Empire.
    I hope you like this exploration of history! I noticed I forgot to mention the disappearance of Poland on the last map which wasn't intentional - I got a little carried away with the other topics...
    As always, this video is soft spoken and contains educational content on history to help you relax and sleep. The book is called "Die Napoleonischen Kriege", by Gunther Rothenberg.

    Fun fact: Napoleon was actually average height (avrage height in the 1800 was 167 cm and napoleon was 1,68 so he was above average)

    Wonderful presentation. Wish I had a History teacher like you back in the day. Your soft spoken ASMR and video productions really enable good digestion of information. Look forward to how both the French and Austro-Hungarian Empires evolved from where you left off. Great stuff - Thank You.

    I’m a history teacher with a love for European history, and I love ASMR videos, so this could not be more up my alley if you tried 😂 I watched your Celtic culture video last night and was trying hard to stay awake because I love Celtic history, but I passed out.
    I appreciate your channel a lot! A lot of history/informational-based ASMR channels I have come across are male-run, and men’s voices tend to give me anxiety, so your channel fulfills a very specific niche!

Obviously history is not all sunshine and rainbows, but for the sake of ASMR, I feel it's appropriate to make some editorial decisions. Though of course, that's mostly my sensitivities and everyone's line will be a little different.

    A few years before, Corsica was genoese. In fact the Republic of Genoa gave the Island to French because they couldn't pay for the help of french to win against the corsican revolt. How could history change if Corsica remain under Genoa? Maybe a genoese Napoleon would unificate Italy under him?
