Funny little guy. One of the best frenchman, probably not as fierce as me but still very potent! He would have never attacked Russia if I was president, he wasn't afraid of Sleepy Jefferson so he decided to invade them but if I was the president at the time he would never had dared. Really, a lovely guy, he used to write me letters when he was on vacation in Corsica. One of the best french emperor in the history of our country.

Early spring is too wet to move armies. They bith invaded in the Summer when the ground was firm. Hitler also had no choice to invade Russia so that he could capture the Caucasus oil fields, without which defeat was certain. Keep in mind the Soviets could not even win a war agaonst Finland. With the information available it would have been retarded not to invade Russia when Hitler did.

Napoleon inherited the French government's debt from both losing the French and Indian / Seven Years' War AND from further exhausting themselves financially by helping America win its War of Independence from its hated rival, England

Both of these things created a Himalayas of debt that not only caused the French Revolution and Reign of Terror, but also then necessitated someone like Napoleon coming along to get France back in the financial black through any means necessary -- and that meant lots and lots of conquest and looting of territory, as well as selling off the Louisiana Territory in America

It's always about needing to acquire assets and pay off debts -- this pretty much drives everything

The soul of Napoleon reincarnates every 120 years. Last time it was as Adolf in 1889. His current incarnation is 14 years old and set to rise to power next decade. This time around he'll have an army of robots at his disposal, so he won't get cucked by the cold.

Legendary man. There's a reason there's so many lies about some of the greatest men to ever live like Napoleon and Hitler, and it's because they were for gold and silver and fought and fucking won against the central bankers.

Just look up his history from monetary books, you'll find out he protected France from inflation and kept the kikes at bay, he was the sole book keeper for France and guarded this shit from the kike inflationary bankers.

Because we didn't want to support Jacobians. Congress argued hotly for whether or not to enter the conflict, but the argument wasn't for the revolution, but whether or not to save King Louis and his family. Many of our politicians at the time who argued against it would later express regret at doing so, but the main reason isolationism won out was concern that while American privateers (as we did not have a standing army at the time) went to France, Britain might invade us again. This wasn't unfounded given how niggerish the British were in all our conflicts with them leading up to the War of 1812, and the One Day War afterwards where they, the same day they signed a peace treaty, turned back around and attacked us again and got massacred by future POTUS Jackson and his men.

imagine having an army that relies on onsite food and sending them in winter in the ice pokemon land. he threw everything away. all these dead for what?

he taught the world than blessed people must keep themselves in check through logic and humility then you ll get the best of both worlds.

napo attacking russia in winter is probably on par wirth rome bringing jews into rome. a catastrophical disaster. europe would have been united with the only non psychos of europe at the top and history would have ended here

In fairness to him, he actually did try to solve the food issue, it's just that neither he nor any of his advisors understood thermal expansion. They used then brand new mason jars to air seal meals for soldiers as rations, but due to the extreme temperatures which he'd underestimated, the jars would often shatter wasting entire meals.

In his defense, the invasion was successful, just the occupation wasn't. He should have struck St. Petersberg, but he made the assumption that like the rest of Euros, the Russians would be broken if they lost their cultural capital (being Moscow).

"it was thanks to Napoleon that Freemasonry spread in Europe and became a mass phenomenon. He turned Freemasonry from a secret society, as it used to be, into almost an official state religion, uniting all the French lodges around the Grand Orient.
The youngest brother, Jerome Bonaparte (1784-1860) was initiated into the Freemasons at the age of 17 in the Mir Lodge in eastern Toulon. His career has developed rapidly. A year later, in 1801, he became Grand Master of the Grand Mother′s Lodge of Westphalia, and in 1807, Napoleon made him king.
The elder brother, Joseph Bonaparte (1768-1844), was initiated in the Lodge La Parfaite Sincérité (Perfect sincerity) in the Orient of Marseille. In 1804, he became Grand Master of the Grand Orient of France and King of Naples, and then King of Spain.
Louis Bonaparte (1778-1846), the father of the future Napoleon III, served as Deputy Grand Master from 1803 to 1806, before being succeeded by Jean-Jacques Regis Cambasseres.
Napoleon’s wife, Empress Josephine de Beauharnais (1763-1814), was initiated into a women’s Lodge in Strasbourg and held the position of Grand Master for some time.
Eugène de Beauharnais, the only son of Josephine from her first marriage, at the age of 24, having received the title of viceroy of Italy from her stepfather, became the founder of the Grand Orient of Italy and the Supreme Council of Italy.
It is not surprising that under this leadership, both military and civilian wanted to enter the ranks of freemasons at the earliest opportunity. Masons were twenty-two of Napoleon’s thirty marshals, five of the six members of the Imperial Military Council and six of the nine ministers in the government."

"After becoming Emperor, Napoleon remained closely involved in Masonic matters. At the place of execution of King Louis XVI, he ordered to install an obelisk with a Masonic symbol – a five-pointed star. When creating a personal imperial heraldry one of the symbols of freemasons – a bee was used, which became Napoleon’s family symbol.
Shortly after Napoleon came to power, on June 22, 1799, a memorandum of nine articles was signed between the two largest French Masonic Branches, establishing specific general rules. In particular, the Worshipful Masters were stripped of their exclusive privileges. A system for the election of officials was made mandatory for all freemasons, establishing a fully democratic order. Only a few Lodges in the Scottish Rite refused to join the memorandum.
Thus, a very assorted French Freemasonry became a united and homogenous system, which was entirely in Napoleonic spirit. Soon was published “The Freemasons’ Regulator” – a set of rules and rituals for the Lodges of the Grand Orient of France. The Lodges of the Scottish Rite also made appropriate amendments to their rules – it took them three years, however. As a result, the rituals still did not become identical, but there was a single Supreme Council of the 33rd degree, the decisions of which became binding for all. The Emperor could influence any decision, since, by that time, the Supreme Council was headed by his elder brother Joseph, who had become the Grand Master.
The 33rd degree Supreme Council, created at the initiative of Napoleon, continues its work today.
The “Freemason’s Regulator”, which unified the activities of freemasons, has become a document that organically continued Napoleon’s reforms, along with the Constitution, the Civil Code, the system of universal education, a single state award system (the Order of the Legion of Honour), etc."

Thomas Jefferson and Ben Franklin subverted King Louis. People don't realize how fanatical the founding fathers were in their revolutionary zeal.

The whole american revolution was just a game for France to fuck with their favorite enemy. They weren't prepared.

Nigga was slightly above average height for the time, the (((Anglo))) propaganda machine works hard this many years later. I bet you think Hitler had brown eyes and was part Jewish too.

In some ways. I'm sure in some ways it'd be exactly the same however. Power consolidates over time.
We'd probably all be speaking french though

Eylau was'nt part of the campaign of Russia. It happened during the 4th Coalition, opposing France vs Prussia and Russia. Prussia was crushed in less than a month, then french took care of the russians. First at Eylau (a bloody half-victory then at Friedland (decisive victory)
