The Forgotten Tragedy of the Last Bonaparte | Alex Deane

Prince Imperial, the heir to Napoleon III and the Bonaparte dynasty, was a symbol of resilience and determination. After the fall of the Second Empire, he joined the British Army, seeking purpose and honor in exile. Known for his bravery, the young prince volunteered for service in the Anglo-Zulu War, where he faced danger head-on. Tragically, his life was cut short during a Zulu ambush, a death that sent shockwaves across Europe. This heroic yet heartbreaking story marked the end of the Bonaparte imperial lineage and cemented Prince Imperial as a poignant figure of loyalty and sacrifice.

Napoleon IV RIP.

Napoleon III didn't "fail to get re-elected". He dissolved parliament, had a new constitution written, and gave the poor their vote back (which the rightist parliament had taken away)

If it acts noble, it's probably not a loss. Certainly not tragic. It's tragic when they don't die at birth. Do you have the slightest idea how much damage these monsters can do?
