Napoleonic Wars: March of the Eagles 1805 - 09

The Napoleonic Wars (1803 - 1815) brought upheaval and destruction to Europe on an unprecedented scale. This is the story of the first half of those wars, when Napoleon Bonaparte, self-crowned Emperor of the French, ruled supreme on the battlefield and international stage - the greatest man of his age. But in the midst of victory, the seeds of his eventual downfall were sown.

This video is a compilation of the first six episodes of Epic History TV's Napoleonic Wars series.

Let us all agree this entire series is a work of art

[kaen_tqk]

Imagine being so badass, the war was named after you.

I just can't stop watching this series of Napoleon. Such a masterpiece.

[martin]

If only Ridley Scott had seen your Napoleon series...

As a young lad, being a history lover all my life. It was to my great sadness that history seemed to have fallen by the way side on mainstream media, with even the history channel preferring programs about alien conspiracies over actual history and my favourite history games, total war, abandoning history for fantasy, its absolutely amazing to see a channel like Epic History taking up the mantle and absolutely nailing it. Love you guys!

Napoleon is the living definition of "Fine ill do it myself".

"the Duke of Brunswick was shot through the eyes - a wound that proved fatal" had me dead

"Bonaparte gave us example how we should win" still remains in the Polish anthem today.
"What, impossible? I don't know such a word. Nothing is impossible for my Poles!" - Napoleon used to say about Polish soldiers in his army.
Napoleon is still remembered and honoured in Poland!

"He was hit in the shoulder"
Me : He'll be fine.
"by a cannon ball"
Me : or not..

One of the finest productions on all of YouTube.

[Nick-rsif]

The story of Napoleon's life and reign really are the stuff of legend.
There are fantasy tales more realistic in scope than his military career. Napoleon's genius was simply astonishing!

Love this channel! Only recently found it, but it more than fills the hole that the History Channel left over a decade ago when they decided to produce reality shows instead of actual history, and I learn far more from these!

[FriendlyYandere]

As a grand strategy gamer, a documentary like this is way more appealing than the one made with actors reenactments and historians interviews.

[marcusaurelius]

The best Napoleonic documentary I've ever seen

[bauer]

After about 20 years of reading almost exclusively about WW1 and WW2 this is a revelation. I can’t wait to properly begin my journey of learning about this period. Fascinating stuff.

[brunoteixeira]

I just can't overstate the quality of this series. Thank you so much

[chaosXPRT]

25:29 That young soldier probably didn't care about being scolded. He was probably just excited that the Emperor had spoken to him.

[LetsGoGetThem]

Fun fact: When George Washington died, Napoleon who was a great admirer of the American experiment declared a national day of mourning.

[LillianCrowley]

I can hardly describe how amazing this series is. I've watched it over and over again, it just doesn't get old. From the music, to the visuals, to the amazing narrating voice. I wish television was even close to the quality this channel produces

[jakehone]

I came here to watch for 5 minutes... and... an hour and 35 minutes later... ready to watch more. Bravo. Loved it.
