I love these videos. The senario doesn’t stop after maybe 10 or 15 years.

I’ve often wondered about what France would look like if it’s birthrates had not started to decline so early on (the late 1700s). 80 million? 100 million? 120 million? Imagine the World Wars in a scenario like this.

[ilyac]

Napoleon listed 4.5 great mistakes in his reign: Turning on Toussaint in Haiti, invading Spain, invading Russia and killing the Duke D’Enghein.

Best case scenario for Napoleon would be slowing down the momentum of the sixth coalition in 1812, dragging the war until they signed a peace treaty that kept the Rhine border and recognized his son as the heir of the empire. He is sent to Elba and lives just enough to see his son crowned as emperor at age 18.

Belgium never gets to exist.

Always a great day when Neatling posts.

Your alt hist videos are honestly the best om youtube. Its the perfect combination of realism and also fun scenarios

[arthurbriand]

You have been missed
A couple scenarios :
What if the royalists won the English Civil war in its first year? An absolutist England might change the rest of History including America's
What if the english settlers lost King Phillip's war and New England collapsed? Basically they either go to the southern colonies or back to England and the Dutch, French and natives all take parts of New England.
What if the crusader states survived ?
What if the Mameluks modernised and resisted the Ottomans? The Ottomans have a smaller territory and may be more focused toward Europe.
What if the Imperials won the 30 years war early?

The problem with empires is that they never last

[MyHoeDespawned]

Every one of your videos is great, keep up the good work king.

[alefergo]

The movie has led to multiple alt history scenarios about Napoleon winning. This is the third I see.

[noelxlk]

I've been watching ever since the eastern Rome videos, where i called your channel criminally underrated. I'm so happy to see how far your channel has gone. Remember me when you get to 100, 000 ❤

[gggdrengen]

love the fancy background music, nice touch :)

[CVinny]

Napoleon is too ambitious, there's nothing we can do.

[crusader]

Welcome back. Great video. I like the Southern German State. 👍

Neatling, Videntis and possible history truly are the GOATS

Why did I not get a notification for this? Thanks neatling!

[PolarisStar]

Could this mean Russian and French communism could end up in a split like Iraq and Syria?

[prismaticc_abyss]

As a German, that sounds like an incredibly scary turn of events, the darkest timeline

[sagittariusa]

Napoleon would had focused on developing the French fleet, not caring about the Spanish monarchy so long as they remain loyal and even assisting them in conquering Portugal. He could insist that the crown prince engage in as a minor king of the realm of Spain. Napoleon could had backed Ferdinand in 1807 who did reach out to him and insist Charles relinquish some of his authority to Ferdinand as a means to prepare him for the rule of succession. This would prevent France from destroying itself in subjucating the Spanish. And in turn France could had used that time build up its Navy, solidate itself and invade the United Kingdom.

"The British Fleet is too strong."

Actually, it was just dumb luck that helped the British. They weren't that invincible. If France had as many ships and had naval officers on par with best of Venice, Genoa and the Netherlands, they could take on the British and it would be a close call, more Ships and the British are done for.

If Britian is defeated, the need for the Continental System would be less necessary and the need to go to war with Russia just wouldn't happen.
