5:58 The Continental System would work great as a trade bloc. Napoleon could establish a free trade zone within the bloc, and then establish high (but tolerable) tariffs for the Continental System. With one little carve out: France can have slightly lower tariffs, so that trade gets funneled to their ports. The blockade of Britain never worked, and even during the wars, France traded massively with Britain (most French soldiers wore British boots), so may as well steer into the skid. Or, if this is implemented during the Peace of Amiens, the following wars could be averted entirely.

Something I adore about your videos compared to other alt history creators is that you remember that no great power is ever going to be idle and allow someone else to expand if they dont want it to, little things like giving Austria Silesia or Russia a slice of Poland go a long way to keeping the crucial detail in mind That and remembering that just because someone is more competent doesn't mean they can work miracles, the French weren't going to magically invade the isles because a few battles went better, Britain spent centuries building their naval hegemony

Seeing Russia expand at the price of Prussia is pretty funny too me. Russia was an important member of the 4th Coalition against Napoleon, yet after losing hard to Napoleon they not only barely get punished, but get rewarded with not only Finland, but also with Polish land.

I don't really see how Napoleon can avoid giving the Polish people something, they were among his strongest supporters outside of France to begin with and there WAS international sympathy for Poland that carried over even into the Congress of Vienna. Not to mention one of his most famous mistresses was Polish.... I'd say more lenient terms in getting the Austrians on his side like in OTL without the Invasion of Spain seems more feasible.

I know the idea is quite broad on what time it could happen for it to occur, but I think it would be a really fun video if you were to make a "What if everything went perfect for Poland" as the Poles have had so many opportunities to become a major power in Europe. There are two big times I can think of for it to occur, those being either in 1439 to 1444 where the Kingdom of Hungary had fallen into the hands of King Władysław III of Poland who was also the Supreme Duke of Lithuania who, after a treaty between Hungary and the Ottoman Empire had been signed, decided to break the treaty in order to save Byzantium and to push the Ottomans out of Europe. At that time the Ottomans were in high political turmoil and was on the brink of self collapse and, if the Battle of Varna had succeeded, might just have. This would have left King Władysław III to rule Poland, Hungary, Lithuania, and even Bohemia! The other best time to largely expand Poland was in 1592 to 1618 when the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth had made a union with Sweden and then just six years later tried to take over Russia who was in the worst possible position to be in such a war, but against most odds and with some help from Sweden, Russia had survived. If however if before the the war the Commonwealth had managed to secure its union with Sweden Russia would have been in an even worst situation than in our timeline to fend of the Polish onslaught. I know these are pretty big subjects to do a video on and that there are probably many variables I do not know or understand, but still think this would be a pretty cool idea for a video nonetheless.

I need a deeper exploration into this scenario. What will be of south-east Asia? What's the situation in the Spanish's American empire? What about Napoleon's 3rd biggest mistake in Haiti? How will the Americans react? How does Prussia go forward without Silesia? I swear this could become my favorite videos of yours.

There is something we can do credit to possible history

I’d really like a sequel. Also “What if Napoleon was killed by a nest of rabbits?”

6:54 There were spanish admirals like Churruca or Gravina, who were considered competent and had experience fighting and even beating the british in the seas, however that would need to make the french accept a spanish leading the battle and it sounds impossible for Napoleon to let any other country give orders to a french officer

2:55 WE AINT ABLE TO DO ANYTHING WITH THIS ONE 🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥

As with the Perfect Central Powers timeline, I think you might be able to put together a continuation for this altered postwar world. The USA will inevitably dream of Manifest Destiny if Spain were to still lose control of their American holdings while Brazil has just become Portugal's Taiwan by way of the defeated Portuguese monarchy setting up shop there after being cast from the mainland.

I would definitely love to see a continuation of this scenario. Thanks for the video!

You've been on fire lately, topics been nice and lots of contents!

4:00 Louis XIV or XVI ? Because a carreer of 130 years for Talleyrand is a bit too long in my opinion

This is a great video. However, another aspect that I believe could be expanded on is an outright proposal by the French to partition the Ottoman Empire with Austria and Russia, at least its European and Caucasian territories, perhaps expanding French interests in North Africa. Whether this proposal could be outright conquests or spheres of influence of the region. It would be an interesting way for Napoleon to try and satisfy his continental allies/rivals, while also breaking Great Britains influence. This conflict would likely be more difficult in certain fronts than expected, but I'm certain they would try to capitalize on Secessionist and Rebel movements in the Ottoman's European territories, and would still be a sledgehammer that would likely either kill the Ottoman Empire or reduce it to almost WW1 borders. Constantinople would likely lead to a great deal of tension among the powers of Europe and could lead to future negotiation and conflict.

I'm often thinking about that so nice video Vive l'Empereur !

An italian youtuber made a video about the Napoleon's victory, and that it was in the realm of realistic possibilities. I don't remember the french names, but he named some admirals and politicians that costed him the war and he should have them fired, and he named better people than napoleon should have gave more power and trust. Anyway he said the same thing about the naval battles grinding for a victory in the long run. He added about supporting the irish and push them to revolts and send them supplies at every opening. He said that instead of invading russia, he should have used that huge army for the fully military occupation of Spain and Portugal, to stop the guerrillas to receive information and supplies from UK. Reinforced a new polish nation in the east and enforced loyalty in Scandinavia to better cut of Russia from UK. Remove the nationalists from the french government that pushed for french protectionism and united all the european markets in a common custom union to make them trade preferentially along themselves than with UK. In his idea he would have won, with a friendly rhine conferederation, Poland and Italy helping keeping in check Prussia and Austria. Ottomans and Russia would only be forced to adapt this new reality because they would never be able to gather the forces to fight. Spain and Portugal would be re aligned with time. Ireland revolts would give the last support needed for an invasion of UK after years.

I definitely want to see a sequel of this

I'd like to see an alternate history from 1812 if Napoleon gave up on the continental system and made peace with Britain, just as the Americans declare war on Britain without yet knowing that now Britain was now free to give the American war so much more attention. I could see President Madison trying to take-back-sies on the declaration of war as a much better supported General Sir Isaac Brock moved down from Niagara and Tecumseh and an Indian Confederation moved down from Michigan, as a fresh army newly imported from Britain moved down from Quebec.

As far as I know, some Poles warned Napoleon against invading Russia proper. According to them, it would stop after capturing the Smolensk Gate, thus giving the opportunity to resurrect the Commonwealth in a republican shape on the Baltic-Black Sea bridge. After a few years, you could try to attack St. Petersburg and the decapitation of tsarism.
