Napoleon - The Deadly Emperor of Europe

- Was Napoleon the greatest conqueror ever? What do we know about him?
He was the man who established the First French Empire. To the French people he was a hero. To the French royalty he was their demise. Napoleon Bonaparte was a scourge to European leaders, but the countries he conquered joined a vast empire spanning from Spain into Russia.
Along with his control over Europe, Napoleon Bonaparte conquered territories in the West Indies, Americas, and Northern Africa. Napoleon may have been the greatest conqueror history has ever seen.
Napoleon Bonaparte was born on August 15, 1769 on Corsica, an island in the Mediterranean Sea. Just before his birth the island of Corsica was conquered by French forces, making baby Napoleon and his family subjects of King Louis XV.

WW2 Germany: defeats France in 6 weeks
Napoleonic French Empire: reaches Berlin in 19 days
The difference is that in ww2 the majority of french troops were commanded to surrender, so they didn't engage in battles, while in the war of 4th coalition all prussian troops engaged in battles but still lost completely.
@@freeman9738 "in ww2 the majority of french troops were commanded to surrender"
The attrition rate of the French army during the campaign of France was the same as the battle of Verdun. The common soldiers fought as much as they could, they were not ordered to surrender.
@@solwen , you are not familiar with history, are you? After the minority of the french and british troops were defeated, the rest (the majority) of the french troops were ordered to surrender.
@@freeman9738
The "cadets de Saumur" is enought to counter your entire argumentation.
@@subsonic5 , As far as I know, France had 0.9 million regular soldiers + 5 million mobilized soldiers. Around 2.5 million soldiers engaged in battles, the other 3.5 million were disbanded after French government decided to surrender so they didn't engage in battles.

There was no mention of the great odds against Napoleon, and his military revolution in tactics.
And how he made like the corps and stuff
Yea he destroyed them europe
Because that’s an American propaganda against France vidéo
Napoleon didn't have great odds in fact his france had the highest population in europe even greater than russia and he didnot face the gigantic enormous American industry like ww2. So he had it pretty easy. And most of the countries were divided and not galactic empires like in ww2.
For eg: in napoleonic france period there was no unified germany, uk was not quite the galantic empire yet. America was pretty much just born, austria was messed up and Russia did not have the biggest population. And despite this advantages he still lost but if you compare it to ww2 the germans were certainly the undergo not to mention fight the whole world with so much limitation and all...
@@thepretorian5292 Do you belive in america so much you consider the only way someone could fight great odds is to fight modern america as a 19th century european power?
Napoleon, in every single war of the coalitions, had his army outnumbered, even during 1814's campaign of France, he won 4 battles in a few days when his army was outnumbered 4 to 1 and with his army being mainly constituted of unexperienced conscripts
The goal of Napoleon wasn’t to beat the British in the sea but to secure enough time for a land invasion (the distance between France and England is 80km)
In less than a week England is down on his knee
Dod o he will loot England
It takes 7 coalition with different European nations to take him down.
- In contrasts with the British navy
His force’s wasn’t so dispersed around the globe .....
Dod o has if he doesn’t have already guns and ammunition ( it is miracle to win wars without firearms)
Most seriously when the Spanish Armada attempted to subjugate England the British were panicked.
If it wasn’t for Francis Drake and a convenient storm the UK will have been a vassal states of Spain
in my opinion:
The napoleonic forces were stronger than the British forces( not taking in to account the navy)
If they have embarked I suppose the french will have conquered England the same William did
Dod o apparently you didn’t understand that the Spanish almost subjugated England with a much smaller force.
You didn’t gave any valid argument
Once think is certain England without exterior help wouldn’t last again Napoleon
I’m not sure of the exact distance but I know it is not 80 km between Dover and Calais

The 100 days is the most legendary thing in history, man just walks towards Paris and slowly builds up an entire army and scares away the ruler that replaced him before he even got there.
During the 100 days, Napoleon fought several battles in France (Ligny, Montmirail, Champobert, Reims) and Belgium (Quatre Bras, Wavre and Waterloo). During the 3 months, more than 100,000 soldiers from all side died.

Napoleon really improved France a lot and was a proper man of the people I feel. My theory is that the rest of Europe's pro-elitist, pro-establishment governments couldn't stand seeing a country being run by someone who wasn't just for the elites and so kept trying to bring him down all because they were paranoid that they would be overthrown and replaced by Napoleon-like leaders
Actually he did a lot of damage to the economy as it was directed to just supply his troops. And the men who died in his wars were a drain in the population.
The French Revolution and it’s consequences…
God bless the rest of Europe for standing against the Tyrant Napoleon and his equally tyrannical enlightenment ideals
@@obiwankenobi6871napoleon was purely a man of ambition, everything he ever did was in pursuit of accomplishing that ambition. Why do you think he divorced Josephine after she didn’t give him an heir. Napoleon wasn’t an example of the revolution nor did her particularly feel for the poor who couldn’t eat, for napoleon he saw the revolution as a gateway to success, to fulfilling his ambitions, why do you think he betrayed the revolutions idea of a democracy and instead install him self as a total ruler. All the things napoleon did was to keep himself in power, whether from foreign powers or from local ones.
Totally agree. It is happening again right now.
@@obiwankenobi6871this was a joke right
How can you make a video about Napoléon without mentioning the Peninsular war,which was Napoleon's first defeat and is thought by many as the beginning of the end for the Empire? Disappointing.
Napoleon never fought in the Peninsular war and this whole Campaign is basically an embarassement for the British: 5 years in allied territory with 2 allies to retake friendly territory against rear echelon troops … This Campaign was not even finished when the whole war was over .
@@solwen Napoleon did fight in the Peninsular war! After the Spanish started having some success, he led the Grande Armée into Spain to retake control of the situation. He had to leave some time later because of the russian campaign. The Peninsular war ended in 1814, after the combined British, Spanish and Portuguese forces forced tje French out of Spain and started to threaten the centre of France. It is thougjt that if Napoleon hadn't chosen peace at that moment then the allies would have reached Paris.

In this context, you employ the term "unify Europe" in a figurative way to say that they unified a significative part of Europe.

@@maximiniumsubs8393 many like the wars. 1. He did declare war but only for defensive purposes and those were ONLY three times while the coalition declared many wars. 2. The Infographic channel said that Napoleon got most of his fame that will lead to him being the emperor in the battle of Toulon and when he fired cannons to royalists, but they forgot that he actually got most of his fame from the battle of Marengo which destroyed the Holy Roman empire's army and because of that Vienna was defenseless. Because if that they were able to make peace as well as ceding northern italy to France. 3. the estimated people that were killed by the guillotine was actually 40.000. 4. They really need to say that after the war of the third coalition the Holy Roman empire was dissolved and also Napoleon created the confederation of the Rhine. 4. The narrator says that Napoleon is ruthless (not directly) because he declared many wars that in which he didn't actually declared but his enemies declared but really is he? No, he even made the Napoleonic code which got the inspiration from the Justinian Code or the Corpus Juris Civilis and just like the Justinian Code it is a civil code. Not the first but first to be spread world wide. 5. The flag of Austria isn't the (from top to bottom) red, white, and red but it's actually a horizontal black and yellow. 6. They didn't said anything about the peninsular war. 7. Napoleon was defeated in Waterloo because of the Prussians and they did NOT helped the British repel the french, rather Prussian army general Blucher decided to attack from behind or the flank (I forgot). Rumor then sirculated throughout the french army that the prussians were going to attack them from behind. Not wanting that the french began to flee for dear life. There are maybe more flaws but I don't want to rewatch it which is because I like to forget things.

No mention was made in this video of how Napoleon sent 50,000 French troops to Haiti to re-enslave the Black people there but instead, Napoleon was defeated by Toussaint L'Ouverture and Jean-Jacques Dessalines in the Haitian Revolution.
Its called White boi HIS STORY
Napoleon didn’t go to Haiti himself he actually sent some worthless general
still did not understand how did the royalty allow him to be exiled to elba. woudnt it be obvious he could attempt to seize power again?
because it would cause the government problems with the people of france loving him. not that hard
People didn’t think then or now
Mandela was arrested in Robben Island, it is so that the powers at be have a sense of humanity also to quell civil unrest with killing a popular leader, also to use the leader if they reform
Executing him would have set the whole country on fire.
He only re-seized power after the people began causing unrest and clamored for him to return

The video is a bit tainted by the UK point of view, even if mostly okay, two things are not accurante in this video :
By 1805 Napoléon was indeed planning to invade the UK because they actually broke the treaty of Amiens of 1802 by refusing to free Malta like they promised. Pitt the Young was wishing the return of the war which happened in 1803 by a new declaration of war from him. Napoléon moved his armies to the east before Trafalgar because Bavaria and Baden - actual allies of France - were invaded by Austria because the UK actually payed Austrians and Russians to declare war on France. Why did the UK pay these empires for a war? To occupy the french on the continent in the case where the french could cross the channel (if Trafalgar had been a victory).
A bit different than "Napoleon wanted to submit Europe" ;) !
+ Nope, Napoléon did not declare war on any country in 1815, instead the UK and its allies declared him as ennemy of the humanity, it's the litteral title they gave him.
Napoléon was not marching on Wellington for conquering land, he was trying to separate the british and the prussian armies because together they outnumbered his forces, just like the 700 000 men who were marching on France by 1815.
Napoléon was not a diplomat, but there is a bias in the video even if slight bias.
Napoleon is my favorite historical general ever he’s so cool I just wish he were still around today
Britain: We don't do that here.

CallMeSalman any link or source that he did it better?
@@Salman-nn9yh that was Subutai not Genghis and it was a split kievan ruse not unified tsarist Russia
And he literally held his own for years against the entirety of Europe
@@starting7725 “held his own” Napoleon didn’t merely hold his own against Europe, he completely smashed them for like ten years, before messing it all up by marching to Moscow.

"the battle of 'Trafalgar'" this is why we find Americans insulting. Somehow we can say all of your words but you can't even begin to pronounce ours.
