I like Nelson bouncing around the Mediterranean like a Windows screensaver. ๐คฃ

I consider myself very well-informed about European History -but this contribution is hands down the best summary of the accomplishments and role Napelon played during his time.
The researched facts are presented in a highly professional way - both voice and visuals are of the highest professional level which captured my attention from the first minute till the very last after over half an hour.

That was a great summary of Napoleon. I'm from the USA. So the only part I didn't get was the analogy to British supermarkets. I might use cars to illustrate, they're more universal. "This one's a Mercedes, that one's a Toyota". But the good part is - your videos are reaching across the Pond ๐๐

I always knew that Napoleon was a military genius, but I was not aware of just how much of a military genius he was. Turning unwinnable situations into victories or harsh struggles is monumentally impressive. This video was quite the fascinating watch.

He reorganized the entire French army completely. They became so fast that it devastated every opponent. Each division would have its own artillery, cavalry, engineers etc.. Look at his Marshalls and you'll see he promoted the best not the richest.

So... What was the one simple reason?

The russians did the opposite of all-out retreat. They did an all-out last stand at borodino, suffering huge casualties but fighting to the absolute death, refusing to retreat and leave the field to napoleon. They fought to the death all the way in, burned everything rather than surrender it, and then saw them off

Interesting fact- I live in Florida, and I metal detect the beaches for jewelry. One day I found an old brass button with some kind of insignia on it. After a quick Google search, I saw that it was from napoleons 7th infantry. It was found around Hillsboro Inlet in Pompano Beach. That is a very old inlet. Pretty cool to directly touch history like that. I still have it. That was over 15 years ago.

I always love how they couldn't kill Napoleon, they could only "banish" him to islands. They made him out to be Godzilla.

Just wanna say I stumbled across your channel almost 8 years ago and I love what youโre doing glad you are still creating content

Big fan of Thoughty2's content - the research, the concise points, excellent vocals and then delivery!

The most astonishing fact is that he was only 51 when he died. I'm 52 and I would have to be born a million times more to achieve 1% of what he did. Incredible man.

He commissioned pasteurization so his troops could carry 3 days worth of food. He went to the same war colleges as all of the other European commanders and knew exactly what they would do. Not having to rely on wagon trains, his men could outflank the armies that did. He intentionally ceded the high ground, having preemptively dialed in his artillery on it knowing that enemy generals would rigidly hold to that doctrine and let their men die in neat, disciplined ranks under the ensuing bombardment.

What an amazing telling of an, obviously, legendary person. Thank you.

Can we have more long form history content? I know a lot of the channel is history but this was fascinating to listen to as someone whose view of history class was boring despite how much I wanted it not to be. Great video as always!

Apparently he was a very good writer. A writer from the period even said, โitโs a shame that a mind as great as napoleons was dedicated to trivial things, like empires, conquests, and power.โ

Iโve read three books on Napoleon and this short
Video made more sense and understanding than all my wrestling with French history! Wow, thank you!!!!
