As an amateur historian, a huge fan of all history, and who watches nearly every big historian KZreadr, I must say, this is my favorite channel. The work and detail that goes into these, makes it look like a big budget documentary series. I can sit here for an hour and a half and I can barely tell so much time has gone by, just soaking in everything presented here. I will continue to watch every single video you post, and I almost never do patreon, I will be joining yours to further support the hard work you do. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Napoleon was undoubtedly a rare military talent, witty and successful politician. He won lot of battles, gain a lot of titles. However, a special trubute paid to him from a historical perspective, he still remained an object of significant interest to researchers all over the world. His political decisions are outlined course of French history for very many years forward, on the other hand, Napoleon himself, as a true national leader made a bunch of mistakes, that doomed thriving and opulent Empire he created. He ventured to undertake some crucial false steps. From philosophical viewpoint it is of course is a big lesson for progeny.

Outstanding video! I have learned so much from this and especially like the way that Napoleon's life and career (and his evolution as a leader) are explained in the context of how and why Europe was evolving politically the way that it was. I am going to share this with a dear friend who is a history teacher. He will love it! Off to find the video for Part 2. Thank you so much! (Oh, just noticed that pt. 2 has not dropped yet.

Such a relaxing & calm voice-over is nice background to cover the loud & obnoxious co-workers I have to tolerate in the Office. Thanks People Profiles..!!
I find it funny that this channel had more sense to break up napoleons life into different parts, unlike Ridley Scott cramming it all into a below average film
One of the Greatest military leaders to ever live! Absomutely adore your content guys! Keep beign awesome! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This is not about Napoléon, but here we go: contrary to common belief, Robespierre was one of the most moderate members of the Comité de Salut Public. His image still suffers, after 250 years, from the various black legends crafted and spread by those who sent him to the scaffold. But it's also worth stressing that the man, influential as he was, wasn't the director, or president, or whatever of the dreaded Comité, which was a collective institution where no member held more authority than the others. He was actually working to end the Reign of Terror when the Comité was overthrown at the instigation of Fouché, the murderous, bloodthirsty thug who knew Robespierre was very intent on holding him accountable for his numerous crimes.
This is the absolute best english documentary on Napoleon ! It is very detailled and takes into account the era he was living in. Can't wait for the next part !
I look forward to the new 2023 Napoleon Movie! I hear a 4 hour version will be released… but main movie is 2.5 hours. I am especially interested in the 100 Days in 1815. He had so many times in 1813 and 1814 to agree to peace and give up captured lands but Napoleon is a habitual Gambler… no way he would sit back and just give up glory. THE British knew this and that is why they were so negative when peace was offered.

I saw the Ridley Scott movie tonight and im of the opinion you can't do Napoleon justice with a runtime of 2-3 hours. I liked the movie but after reading books about him and watching this video it made me a bit sad because there is just so much more to tell.

this man should have been borned between Alexander the Great and Julius caesar. Everything about this man is ancient. His perception of the risk/reward couple, his conception of politics, his way of leading armies, even in his Icarian race towards immortality. Why did providence place him at this time? Perhaps because to definitively crush 1500 years of royal power over Europe, a man from the past was needed to definitively crush any temptation to go back in time. Freedom can only be born from the ashes of tyranny, and it took a man from ancient ceasars to light the fire
Congratulations, I now like Napoleon 100x more than I already did. Kudos.
It has begun!! ;P
Awesome video which will become a series. I love this channel beyond words! Thanks for all you do! You're criminally underrated.

Yet another youtube channel that gets Napoleon & the time period right, whereas Napoleon the movie absolutely failed in everything except costumes and cinematography. Great documentary!
Beautiful
He's referred to as 'The Enlightenment on Horseback' fore good reason.

This is what the Napoleon movie should have covered.
Good stuff! Love all documentaries on the Emperor.
Brilliant!! Very well made. Definitely seeing the next one. Bravo!!
Napoleon is only seen as small due to a style in British and German newspapers of the time. They would always depict foreign leaders as tiny to give the impression they were infantile in nature. That's literally where this very British trope stems from.

Fascinating history. I was drawn to watching this because of the Ridley Scott movie on Napoleon which has come out (2023), of which I'm not hearing good reports (trust the movies to balls it up) --- So a straightforward and **factual** documentary is very welcome, especially this first part which covers Napoleon's early life, influences and accomplishments, and the world he inhabited.
This Napoleon movie > the one out in theaters rn
Nice one.
Napoleone Buonaparte is the real name from Corsica. His family originally from Tuscany fought with Pasquale Paoli against France.
Well timed good sir
I love a bit of Napoleon history
He earned it.
Why was the photo of Napoleon changed in this video? It was beautiful.
It's great this channel didn't use the photos from the recent movie "Napoleon".
Going to Corsica in June. very interested
Excellent video, quite objective for an English historian, it is rare enough to emphasize it. On the other hand, I did not understand the allusion to the two world conflicts, because the rivalry between imperialist European powers does not date from 1790.

Any chance of profiling Michael Collins in the future?
Mercury Cyanide is considered by most historians to be the cause of Napoleon's death and seeing as he was under the English's duty of care (ie imprisonment) it is generally believed they were responsible for his departure from this world.

And he was definitely average height for the time.
One minor disagreement: Toulon. The winning strategy WAS Napoleon's, Control the harbor, cut off shipping, Defeat the British Navy from shore...that seige of the town and "full frontal assault" idea just wasn't working out so well. First Victory, "L'Napoleon."
Studied artillery mathematics explains a lot
