Then-President of France Valery Giscard d'Estaing was very friendly w/Bokassa, but France's foreign ministry hated him and felt, rightly, that it was a total embarrassment for France to be supporting this monster. They argued for years to d'Estaing to cut ties with him. D'Estaing finally listened when Bokassa personally beat to death a teenage protester against his rule. Incidentally, the protest was over the fact that he required all schoolchildren to wear uniforms sold by a company owned by his wife at exorbitant prices.
You know what? Fair play to his son for agreeing to take part and going back to the Imperial palace. He could have easily ran away to Europe but in a way, he is owning who his father was for better or worse. I respect that kind of accountability and by forging a role in the new CAR.
@@cherriebrown6737 In a situation like Bokassa's, he would be seen as other citizens as complicit and having to bear some sort of burden even though none of this is his fault.

What is ironic is, the French cut off the head of their own king to embrace "égalité, actualité, ... Only to create an emperor in one of the smallest countries in the world.
With all its own defect. That was the last of a stable govt. Many times if we take political advice outside of the country.. it is never for your benefit... It is for the benefit of the advising country. ...after him tribalism, nepotism came back... Thereafter, it's chaos. Our present democratic government are no different. It's the same with a different outlook and more better public image.
He only spent 25% of the state budget!? AMATEUR!!! *realizes that a few years back his own homeland spent 70% of it's budget 'building' monuments and other shit just because the [at the time] prime minister said so*
The problem are the borders tbh. So many ethnic groups in countries descended from administrative divisions of once upon the time colonies. It's like the Balkans but if all Balkan countries are one republic, bunch of ethnicities, one spark and you have bunch of rebels pushing for more power, fighting each other, foreign powers selling weapons to people who barely have water or food and a powerless republic barely existing only due to support of outside powers. I think the only solution is a radical one, but redrawing the borders. Village by village, town by town. Establishing countries with identities and with western democratic type of government. Otherwise the only thing we'll see in the future for some African countries is civil wars, rebellions and people struggling. I mean their gdp is like 2 billion for a country with like 5 million people. It's sad. Also has many resources. Either strong government to bring order to the country and embrace all ethnicities into the government or balkanization of every rump states in Africa.
Imperator The only difference was that Napoleon could actually run a country and defeat a continent 4 times, as opposed to getting overthrown after killing children over school uniforms
stability can be the greatest virtue for a state. but it is also the most under valued people usually dont cling to dictators they cling to the stability they made for them self and there country
0:52 that little girl said it all 😭😂🙅🏿♂️ "Imagine we are hungry in this country and this useless man is wasting money anyhow." She said, "I think he needs a psychiatrist."
Techmoso No, the one who gave the tour was Prince Jean-Serge Bokassa. The boy at 0:52 is his brother, Crown Prince Jean-Bedel Bokassa II, Bokassa’s heir and the current claimant to the Central African throne
Why doesn't the presenter mention the lady reporter, she is the first named journalist and the narrator? That ceremony was a Poundland version of what the Shah of Iran laid on for his 2500 year empire anniversary. They're still trying to calculate the total cost and France did rather well out of that too!
When Idi Amin saw bokassa for the first time, he was angry to be outshined by bokasa who wore military attire glittered from neck were medals which he had bestowed on himself, Amin quickly ordered his dressers to knit the similar uniform
It's not even that the title had been assumed its the WAY he went about doing it. A dress uniform and a simple yet elegant ceremony would have been fine, as well as a basic Napoleonic-style throne and constitutional council to aide in his reign. This would have been a more thoughtful or (at least tolerable) event if anyone was going to do this at all.
Nostalgia for dictators and sultanistic rulers. We see that in many parts of the world. In recent years there's even nostalgia for Middle Eastern dictators - Saddam Hussain, Moammar Qaddafi, Hosni Mubarak, etc. People always yearn for a "golden past" that is seen to be much better than the chaotic, mediocre, and corrupt present. CAR today is drenched in civil war between Christians and Muslims. It is natural I suppose for the simple people there to look back to a Muslim self-proclaimed emperor who was enthroned and crowned in a Roman Catholic cathedral with a Roman Catholic cardinal present.
Why don't build up the place again and use it as historical place to visit, in that beautiful country and make some money just like France does and the rest of the Europe
Question is: A.) Do they have any funds to fix the place up? B.) Is the CAR in a state (, don't forget, there is a civil war going on right now) that tourist would want to go there? My answer would be hard NO for both.
what monarchies were there in the Bokassa empire, there had to be at least two for this to have been an empire, one possibly Bokassa's own kingdom, CAR, but which was the second one, what African king had to accept Bokassa as his uberking?
We should also hold the enabler’s accountable. In this case he wouldn’t have gotten to this position without France playing the Architect. Nothing gets done without the colonizer’s blessings. Notice when they were done with him, they threw him out right away.
I went there to work and I can assure it the poorest African country and if not the poorest in the world but strange in my 2 years of working there I made huge money the people are really nice and u can see the country was destroyed by greed of its political leaders it Is really a shame and a pitty because the country have huge resources
I wish some traditional African monarchy had survived well and became a ''respectable and serious country''. Ethiopia could be something like that, but the dream ended up very badly there...
I don't condone Bokasa coronating himself emperor, but why a foreign country would come to overthrow a leader of another country? I don't understand. Why would France overthrow him?
What I get here is , looking at the end results today, country doesn’t seem better off after his ruling ended. Even the opposition agree somebody that is firm like this bloke was but without the extra would be better today.
