Woah woah woah guys relax Jesus I said nothing disrespectful at all and what you both said did not argue my point. Number 1) I mentioned Napoleon himself, not the French country. You both mentioned England as a country, not someone specific. And as a matter of fact I can do your job for you, Arthur Wellesley. The famous commander who famously led to the coalition against Napoleon at the battle of Waterloo, the same general who constantly retreated from Napoleon during his campaign in Spain. But guys retreat is perfectly okay as long as it leads to a victory, which in Spain it did. But even still, if you both even brought that up it wouldn't matter because Arthur did not leave his troops during his campaign. For point 2) guys I didn't even mention retreat at all, I said and I quote "......have a history of leaving troops behind" which Napoleon does. Egypt, Russia all the places where he did, in Russia he did it twice! No next time before you talk gentleman please bring some facts with your bag of meaningless statements. Checkmate.

Napoleon could actually control all Europe without invading Russia, and there was no point to occupy Spain. Spain was a traditional ally of France. Spending most of the resources for Russia and Spain made Napoleon's army weakened and exhausted . So without those two mistakes he could be the great winner of everything.

He literally left the battle of Waterloo early, gave command to a guy who accidentally sent the entire calvary to death by near point blank artillary fire.
Napoleon could have turned the tide around after Russia at Leipzig. Napoleon had the chance to capture Tsar Alexander and King Frederick Wilhelm III ending the war. A French Cavalry division spotted a group of enemy outriders who they decided not to pursue. This group consisted of the Tsar and the Prussian King and some of their generals. If a few changes occur, Napoleon could have captured them turning the tables again in favor of a Pyrhhic Victory to an Austerliz like Victory.

Napoleon's war strategy was quite similar to Hitler's. And their failures were nearly identical too. Both of them firmly controlled mainland Europe, but failed to gain naval superiority, and also didn't make sufficient efforts to cut their enemies off from their overseas colonies. They both became impatient and betrayed and invaded Russia prematurely, which got them into multi-front wars, which ended up leading to a rapid downfall. Napoleon took over pretty much all of Europe, but never kicked Britain out of India, nor did they prevent Britain from using the Suez Canal. Hitler similarly took Europe AND North Africa, but never expelled the British from the Mediterranean Sea, which was their artery to the Middle East and India. Hitler and Napoleon would almost certainly have ruled the world had they not been impatient. Both made the mistake of only focusing on Europe, and not control of the seas or foreign colonies. They grew greedy and addicted to conquering massive amounts of land, and couldn't stand the thought of slowing down, even temporarily, to refocus on more important strategies.

Awesome videos on Napoleon! Would you consider making a similar series for Simon Bolivar?
5:32 I love how since they already had a battle at Leipzig they just called "The Battle Of The Nations"
I like how well you summarise and explain it. You really make this otherwise complicated topic music simpler to understand

It wouldn't have change anything in geopolitics. The last years of Napoleon would just have been a little more better for him.
Fact on Napoleon's war with Russia. Winning a war is sometimes ending up losing.

Napoleon did not win a war. He lost more than 10 battles during his retreat which are not included on the list.

Bertrand Russel stated that Napoleon emulated Caesar and wanted to outdo him, that Caesar emulated Alexander and wanted to outdo him, and that Alexander emulated Hercules, who never existed.
Excellent!!!

@@Lewis-zq5wsthey won seven years’ war by the population advantage in North America, Mughal’s decline in India and Russia’s crazy Czar in Europe. Due to these wins British were able to impose their fleet as dominant in the oceans, a partially anti-British coalition was formed in US’ independence war and probably others would have formed after, but Napoleonic wars spread fear of continental armies throughout Europe and Britain used that to make sure that other powers send their men to die to stop a European continental hegemony, so they by supporting the anti-rival force maintained supremacy. It was smart. But then for partially no reason they decided to sing the triple entente, making the German military paranoia a political possibility for Berlin, which waged war as fast as it could to not fight the Triple Entente at full force, causing WWI and making Britain in debt with US to maintain the Empire created in the previous centuries. This was the beginning of the end of British dominance, in fact they were forced to accept a naval limitation treaty from USA, after other British errors (mainly due to excessive anti-communism) made them not stopping Hitler before 1939 the II WW broke out and British Empire was destroyed. It wasn’t smart

There are some small inaccuracies in the video. The first German countries quit the Confederation of the Rhine before the Battle of Leipzig on 16 to 19 October 1813. In March 1813 Mecklenburg-Schwerin and Mecklenburg-Strelitz (located in the north east) quit the Confederation of the Rhine. More importantly the Kingdom of Bavaria (the largest member of the Confederation of the Rhine) joined the allies with the treaty of Ried (signed between Bavaria and Austria) on October the 8th 1813 prior to the battle. Austria guaranteed the Bavarian sovereignty and that in future negotiations it would receive adequate compensation for territories which would be returned to Austria. Bavaria agreed in the treaty to leave the Confederation of the Rhine and declare war on France with the obligation to provide an army of at least 36.000 soldiers for the fight against Napoleon. P.S. During the battle about 4.000 Saxon soldiers and circa 500 cavalry from Württemberg defected from Napoleon to the allies. The commanders of those units did it without orders from their monarchs.

Actually he asked the British Admiral Maitland to take him to Britain because he believed he would be treated fairly there as a prisoner of war. However Parliament had already decided to exile him to St. Helena in the event he surrendered or was captured, which is what happened.
Please, could you make a video about the War of Spanish Succession, as well as one of the Thirty Years War?
