He gave men a reason to live, even if self motivated. When I listen to people (British) who hate him, they sound envious. Yes, he plunder the Church but didn’t kill any clergyman- which is uncommon in war. Historians hide behind the “but the crown was corrupt so the revolution followed.” No bro.

This is beautifully said-it comes to the quote, “History is written by the victors.” I am of the opinion that a more authoritative system is often more effective, and Napoleon effecting countless new laws and raising an army larger than any ever seen before only proves that. Corruption always comes about in any system, but it definitely says a lot that Napoleon’s men refused to arrest him when sent against him upon his return from exile. Patriotism gives people an identity and a rally point, what would be a welcome difference from the division down the aisle we see today (here in the U.S. it’s pretty bad at least, but definitely at least somewhat in other countries under republics or parliaments as well).

If you're Polish or American, Napoleon was a great guy. Poland emerged after many years of being divided. Jefferson bought a third of the US from France, the Louisiana purchase. France sold the USA indian land, which the USA paid for with a loan from the UK. So France paid for future wars against the UK, with UK money in exchange for land they didn't really own and couldn't afford to garrison. Nappy always had a plan, I think Nay cost him that victory at Waterloo.

My 5th Great Grandfather Phillip was lucky enough to be talked to by Napoleon when he was a young boy. His father was in the Commissariat Division of the British Army and they followed Wellington through Spain and Portugal from 1812-14. He got to see the aftermath of the battle at Badajoz, which he described as; "a dreadful sight, men all torn and trampled on, and horses wandering lame and mutilated among the wounded". The encounter happened in Bayonne, when troops were leaving the city and Phillip went to go watch with a German baker. He wrote that a man had pulled up next to them before a wine shop in a "bottle-green frock coat and a cocked hat" and "riding an iron grey horse". Phillip was admiring the trappings of the horse when Napoleon came out and patted him on the head, calling him "Bon Garcon", before he continued onwards.

historians say that Napoleon avoided touching or even confronting plague patients to avoid infection, and that his visits to the sick were an invention of later Napoleonic propaganda. An example of Napoleon's propaganda in this regard, after a period of the campaign, was the propaganda painting "Bonaparte Visiting the Plague Victims in Jaffa in 1804" by Antoine-Jean Gros. The painting showed Napoleon touching the body of a sick man, as he was depicted as one of the "royal healers". This was no accident, as 1804 was the year Napoleon Bonaparte crowned himself Emperor.

Correct. He was crowned himself Emperor at Notre Dame in 1804.

An other version is that he did approched and touched plague patients but because he thought he was unvulnerable. The only thing sure is that historians are unsure about what Napoleon truly did and what were his intention at Jaffa and we will probably never know.

Nobody talks about this but Napoleon was very good at math at a time when cannons were fewer as just big guns he instead would figure out the angles and distance and take out the key strengths of his enemy with artillery

What is the background classical music around 07:50-08:20

19:16 What are the odds that Napoleonic warfare would start the same time as Napoleon's first time in command?

This video assumes a lot. For example, that Napoleon wished for revolution to start because it was the only way he saw how to satisfy his ambition. That's just suppositions. In what way was it possible to predict that revolution would come, or that it wouldn't be crushed, or that it would grow in such a way??? Another thing, it was stated that Napoleon was smitten with Josephine, and yet... almost in the same sentence it was said that because she had connections, it was advantageous for him to marry her; thus almost negating the smitten portion. (By the way, were her connections really that great? Considering that she spent time in prison because she was who she was and had been married to who she'd been married to.) You claim that Napoleon feels entitled to bein treated as an emperor in Italy and even resides in a mention, but because he goes back in a normal uniform he is playing games. And maybe there are evidence to suggest this. But without that evidence this seems only like an opinion. Why not say that he needed to show strength while in foreign lands, and in those days strength was also shown in all the pomp and circumstance; around him there were monarchies everywhere after all. But after he was done, he went back as he really was??? Why assume this ambitious, megalomaniac personality??? I could g on and on, but let's just say, to sum it all up - you assume a lot of his motivations without showing real proof that he was actually this nefarious figure who did nothing but plot his own rise to power. p.s. ANd especially you need to provide proof that Napoleon's brother manipulated the election. Maybe it's just me, but this documentary seems very biased against Napoleon

Sush... Propaganda has slowly rewritten over the decades Napoleon's history and life trying to hide his connection to Italy (as a geographic and cultural territory, not as a political entity that did not yet exist) which, however, remains in old nineteenth-century books that can be consulted in French-language libraries. He had an Italian accent and in the last century it became "Corsican accent" (he spoke in Tuscan dialect with his parents which was the most cultured Italian language in Napoleon's time) He never learned to write well in French but in the last century in every book about Napoleon: "he was fluent in French" His last words before he died were "head of the Army" heard by 4 witnesses but 20 years after his death one of the witnesses added: "France and Josephine" to make it more dramatic and start making him a national myth. Any criticism against Napoleon today is deemed "English propaganda" but the same French historian and intellectual Hippolyte Taine, one of the most representative figures of the European cultural world of the 1800s, wrote: "Napoleon, far more Italian than French, Italian by race, by instinct, imagination, and souvenir, considers in his plan the future of Italy, and, on casting up the final accounts of his reign, we find that the net profit is for Italy and the net loss is for France.“ Taine wrote this in his work "Les Origines de la France Contemporaine," published in 1875-1890. Taine was critical of Napoleon's rule and saw him as more interested in advancing his own personal ambitions and promoting the interests of Italy than in serving the interests of France. This quote reflects Taine's belief that Napoleon had a strong affinity for Italy and that his policies were often motivated by his desire to promote Italian nationalism and culture. (This is why the acculturated French don't love Napoleone Buonaparte...) I personally don’t believe that Napoleon had Italy's interests at heart, ditto France. He was interested in achieving personal glory. Napoleon was a pragmatist, rational, not sentimental about peoples, his main goal was power and his rise to it and France was only the right place for him at the right time. Napoleon was only interested in Napoleon's greatness.

We need a movement like that in the continental US.

Napoleon Bonaparte was of Italian descent. Napoleon's family was of Italian origin. His paternal ancestors, the Buonapartes, descended from a minor Tuscan noble family that emigrated to Corsica in the 16th century and his maternal ancestors, the Ramolinos, descended from a minor Genoese noble family.
