      @@puff6796 Because it didn't have enough money, it could have made and economic alliance with Austria-Hungary and Switzerland. This would have made Austria-Hungary more interested in maritimal expansion, and less interested in appeasing tensions in itself, letting Hungary secede. It could also have colonies (because of it being a maritime power, thus being invited in the Berlin conference about colonisation, which in our timeline didn't happen). And if Hungary seceded, no World War I so no World War II (because no German bitterness about the Versailles Treaty).
      But this is just speculation, so don't take it as granted.

      Atlantis was a real place but it's either under the sea or under the sands of Sahara. One of the less likely locations was Brasil, a island that existed west of Ireland. All that remains of it is Porcupine Bank. The more likely location is in the Sahara somewhere under the sand. Since when Sahara was green were some of the largest fresh water lakes in the world along with rivers.

    Åland held a referendum in 1919 on which country they should belong to, and 95% voted to become a part of Sweden. Finland just said no, and continued to occupy them. Then they took the issue to the League of Nations, and in the only major decision the League ever took, they decided to give Åland to Finland in 1921 without regards to the will of the inhabitants.

      Also the 96% percent approval to join Sweden is obviously exaggerated. No referendum was ever held (due to Finland opposing it), but rather names were signed for a petition. There was another movement within Åland that aimed for autonomy within Finland that ended up succeeding.

    My favorite part of the napoleonic era is when multiple European countries declared war on Napoleon Bonaparte, not France, just Napoleon. imagine being so scared of one man that you and all your friends declare war not on the country that man is a part of, you just declare war on the man.

    3 times Napoleon defeated a coalition of other empires the 4th one defeated him for good. It was because one spiffy Brit had the high ground. 3:28 true but it also contains lots of gold. True story a Russian politician asked for America to return Alaska to Russia as it belonged to the Russian Empire just recently. I really cannot tell if he was serious or being sarcastic. But since Russia is invading countries based on them being former processions of the Russian Empire. Thing is once you sell something it no longer belongs to you, OJ Simpson found that out. 5:58 that event would kill nearly as much people as ww2.

    • @xenotypos

      That was 6 coalitions to defeat Napoleon, even 7 if you count Waterloo (but honestly, he lost way before that).
      While the 1st and 2nd coalitions weren't part of the Napoleon wars (but of the Revolutionary wars), he still had a lot of influence in it. Especially the 2nd.
