What if the Second French Empire had Succeeded? (Alternative History)

Napoleon in near universally regarded as one of the most influential people of all time. But less well known, are the ambitions and reign of his nephew Napoleon the Third. Throughout his 3 decade reign over France he tried with all his might to achieve the same level of glory and success of his uncle. So it begs the question, what if he had been successful?

The thing is, Napoleon III was a very good administrator

This is really a great video my friend and I really like the idea of how the French turn the table against Prussians and other German states favor Austria over Prussia fear of Prussian dominance in Europe. Will, there be a part two for this or that it? Also, will this second French Empire become somewhat a semi-constitutional monarchy with the Emperor having limited political powers while the Prime Ministers and the Senate have political power over the government? Would the republicans try to turn France back into Republic? Would there be an outcry against the Republican party try to turn France back into a Republic? Do the France republicans care about the people's interests and needs or about themselves?

I have great ideas for the next videos, here are some ideas for your what-if videos:

What if Simon Bolivar had been elected as Emperor of Gran Columbia instead of President of Grand Columbia? If Bolivar was elected as Emperor instead of President then how Grand Columbia be look in his reign? What would laws and reforms could Bovilar do as Emperor? Will Bolvair form his own dynasty or the title of Emperor is more a limited office term?

What if Princess Charlotte of Wales had not died from childbirth instead becomes Queen of Great Britian? If Princess Charlotte and her stillborn child survive in this alternate timeline? What her reign be like? How this could be after the rest of Euoprean's history?

What if England Won the 100 Year War? What ways could England win the Hundred Years and what shall become of France? How does this affect culture and history around the world?

What if Rani of Jhansi had survived during the Indian Rebellion and could she unite India against the British? In what ways she could unite India against the British conquest of their homeland?

If you haven't heard of Princess Charlotte or Rani of Jhansi, then here are the links to learn more information about them.



This is a very interesting video with the Second France Empire that had not fallen, I really like outcomes any possibly how Napoleon III as a genius to his namesake to modernized the French Army. Keep up the amazing work!!

HOW IN TF DO YOU NOT HAVE MORE SUBS YOU DESERVE ALEAST TENS OF THOUSANDS

[Hussar]

With the increasing friendship between France and Austria, and Austria not having to divert troops to Italy. I feel like it would have made more sense if France intervened in the Austro-Prussian war. Also I doubt the other great powers of Britain and Russia would be ok with France and Austria partitioning Prussia. Other than that, great video!

6:18 you can see luigi from mario there

[kiankier]

10:04 in this world, Denmark would maybe join for payback, as was planned in our timeline, but the fast defeat of France stop it

I would have loved to have had Maximilian as emperor for much longer.

I think an easier way for the second empire to survive would've been Napoleon III enforcing his will in the leadup to the Franco Prussian war. Bismarck goaded the french into a war by editing messages and making them think their ambassador had been insulted, and Napoleon III under pressure by the public went to war, he later admitted he did not want the war. Had he enforced his will and not gone to war, the second empire would have survived. Just my opinion however.

[theotocard]

You forget the French proposal to share Belgium with the British in order to annex Wallonia

[AngelofTrianon]

I believe you mean the revolution of 1848 and the overthrow of the Orleans July Monarchy, not the Bourbons

[gabrielkezirian]

Do a video about what if Napoleon the first won.

[savagedarksider]

What if Franz Josef had Married Helene and Sisi married Maximilian ?

[MarcelMakesStuff]

sorry was making you a banner sorry im late

[cgyoboi]

I do feel like after France occupies Sardina-Piedmont they'd annex Nice and Savoy

[Sutton-vpbf]

I would argue that with how awful austrias military was after the brothers war and with the internal Hungarian revolt building. That if they joined the French it would allow the Prussians to be pushed back slightly but then they’d turn their attention to the civil war that Prussians would no Doubt support. If anything the war would end with a white peace or minor concessions to the French and a loss of south Germany either in treaty or to Austria assuming the Hungarian revolt doesn’t cripple the nation
