Napoleon Is The Only Emperor With This Achievement

[nimishbagga]

for anyone who doesn't know, Napoleon defeated all of allied Europe, not once, twice or even thrice, but 6 times. All of Europe formed an alliance, tried 6 times and failed, when they did win they sent Napoleon to a certain isolated island with soldiers guarding him, he made the soldiers switch sides and came back to conquer Europe out of confinement, that's not the full story though, in all of his wars that he fought, his army was outnumbered every single time and once won a battle in which his army was outnumbered 1 to 10, but he won anyway. That's how good he was, surely the best military strategist of all time

"Napoleon's presence on the battlefield alone, worth 40, 000 men"

"I defeated the austria army by simply marching"

Chingis Khan didn‘t see the downfall of his empire in his lifetime as Napoleon did.

Gang warfare is named after Ghangis Khan

People don’t understand how terrifying battles would be around Alexander. It’s unfathomable to kill your enemies in such close combat.

[Sovereign_sparky]

Alexander never lost a battle and conquered the known world in ridiculously short period of time.

13 years, alexander conquered from macedon to Egypt to persia all the way to india. Never lost a battle and did it on foot.

Although I respect Tristans opinion, I have to go with Alexander. He also holds a title that the others don’t. He never lost a battle trough out his conquest, in 8 years Alexander had conquered 80% of the known world at the time. He’s empire stretched from Greece and the Balkans to Egypt and through all of the Middle East and then to India. All of this he conquered in 8 years without loosing a single battle, one more thing that people tend to forget is that Alexander was also heavily outnumbered facing 100 000 while his army only consisted of 37 000. After he was done in the east he planed to go west, unfortunately he lived to be 32, he never had the chance to go west where he would surely have won and changed history dramatically, he would in all likelihood have erased the idea of the Roman Empire. Alexander was not only a great general but also a great inventor, building on what the Spartans had already created he upgraded the phalanx and made it his own trademark. The phalanx was later upgraded once again by the romans and is a big reason why the romans were so successful in their conquers. Last but not least he has inspired more commanders, kings or generals than any other general in history, famously Julius Caesar cried in front of his statue at the same age that Alexander died criticising himself on the basis that Alexander had conquered everything at his age.

Technically Alexander started the hellenistic age

[virtualpaladin]

The interviewer somehow thought Tristan was a historian

[Derivitave]

To show how much of a goat Napoleon was, during the war of the Seventh Coalition, war wasn’t declared on France, but on Napoleon himself

[dominicbutenis]

It should be noted that he crowned HIMSELF as Emperor, it is said that he snached the crown from the hands of the pope and crowned himself to show his defiance towards the pontiff, imagine conquering europe and just placing a crown on top of your own head, truly a badass.

He was also unintentionally charismatic, he wasnt actually good with people but hed unintentionally say humerous things, one example is:

Nepoleon was taking cover from canon fire alongside one of his soldiers, a canon flew right by their heads and knocked off the hat of the soldier, Nepoleom then said to the soldier "Its good you weren't a foot taller"

This is why his men followed him.

[andrewreil]

The Hammer and Anvil exists even today. Napoleonic tactics are an evolution of Alexanders theory. The idea of Marching in small armies ( corps) comes from Alexanders far Eastern campaigns.

Different answers for different people from different points of view

[isaiahbalahadia]

Genghis khan is a greater emperor than those two because he was able to stabilize and unite his empire in a way where even after his death, his empire was able to stay united for multiple generations. Can’t be said the same for Alexander and Napoleon, because their empires collapsed as fast as they rose.

[GonzoRevolutionary]

Never interrupt your enemy when they are making a mistake - Napoleon Bonaparte

[hairyjohnson]

Yea and alexander and his successors started the HELLENSTIC AGE.

[aoxgamr]

Dont forget that bro got exiled multiple times and came back to continue the war 💀
