Crazy Facts About Historical Figures #shorts #history

Did you know that Napoleon's wife had a friend who was referred to as government property because of her many relationships with ministers of state?

The woman who seduced girls and then beat their boyfriends in a sword duel was honestly so badass

Les Miserables has a subtle reference to Victor Hugo’s “escapades.” The date of Marius and Cossete’s wedding is the anniversary of the first time Victor Hugo had an engagement with a prostitute.

Julie also burnt down a convent to fake the death of her female lover so that they could escape.

She sometimes crossdresses while she duels, she's had a handful of male and female lovers and she was even pardoned by the King of France TWICE, she really was infamous but super talented at acting (she was great at memorising lines)

Honestly she's bisexual legend

That last one was oddly wholesome, he clearly meant something to them😂

[michal]

NAH NAH
The last one.
so many brothels closed like
WOAH.

The truth is that Julie actually was a cross dresser. She showed up to parties dressed as a man and would openly kiss married women. Her only confirmed duel was against three men who she had done this to their betrothed. She beat all of them at the same time but it is not confirmed that she had killed them.

I can sense that some men may find this hot but she was also VERY MUCH a wild card. Without a prop knife for one of her performances, she stabbed herself multiple times before being stopped.

Additionally and should have made the list, she was trained by her father in fencing because he wanted a boy. He even taught her to act and present herself as a boy to enter competitions.

Subjectively, she was a badass but her life was low-key fucked up.

Victor Hugo is just Zeus who was banished from Olypus after the son that was destined to overthrow him finally came. At least he went out the way he loved.
