29:46- Lucian meant that once they take over the government if his brother Napoleon then decides to betray everything they had fought for, then Lucian will not hesitate in killing his own brother.
29:31: No, he’s saying that Napoleon calling on his troops to enter the chamber of the 500 is because, as he said, a minority made of extremist jacobins are disrupting the council by force, and that Napoleon would never infringe on the liberty of Frenchmen.
True words, that stayed true until the end, close to 20 years later.
The Jacobins had nothing to do with the Jacobites. The term "Jacobins" originally referred to the French revolutionaries who formed the Jacobins club. They were so named because their HQ was in a house at Rue Saint-jacques. It originally included moderates and even aristocrats like the Duc D'Orleans, but it radicalized after the departure of the constitutional monarchists, and later polarised between moderate Republicans called Girondins and extremist "Montagnards'. The Girondins were purged in 1793 and executed, after which Robespierre and his Montagnard faction are known as the Jacobins.
Just to continue this and stablish the relation about the name. The Jacobins were named as such because of their HQ which was in which had used to be Saint Jacques Monastery (which indeed named the street it was on). Saint Jacques translation to English would be Saint James. While the Jacobites are named as such because they were the suporters of James II of England, dethroned by the Glorious Revolution. If you notice, both 'James'. So why 'Jacob...'? because Jacob is James in Hebrew and adjectives about 'James' tend to use the original rather than the 'current' form in some cases such as this one. So, yeah, just a coincidence. Considering that the Jacobines were extreme republicans and Jacobites were defenders of a royal line and actually with a conception of sacred/absolute monarchy, ideologically they could not be further from each other :D
That conspiracy was Wild. How easily the establishment crumbles beneath a cunning and charismatic conqueror.
Actually it was a very flawed coup. At any time it could have turned bad for the plotters. Its number one flaw was the attempt to appear legal within the existing parliamentary system. A coup is by its very nature an illegal act. If Napoleon was truly a "cunning and charismatic conqueror," as you say, he would have simply used all military force available at the moment and taken the State by raw force. Instead, he and the others tried to do a ballet dance around the existing political structure.
Lucien Bonaparte was the third child of his family (Napoleon was the second), and after Napoleon he is the most talented of the Bonaparte siblings, but also the most unpredictable.
Joubert died at Novi in the great (future) Marshal Suchet’s arms.
6:49 usually lower house is more powerful that upper house - any law needs consent of both, but lower house has more initiative
Jacobins are named after Dominicans (who in france were called Jacobites) which is where jacobins used to meet. Jacobites were supporters of King James (Jacobus) II during civil war in England.
This is so amazing. Never stop reacting to history!
In many ways Napoleon was a great man and leader especially with his reforms of the legal system. But you have to remember that he was also a brutal dictator. History is never black or white.
“This is going too well.”
Yeah. There were so many ways that this coup could have failed. And it very nearly did.
Now he's going to tell them what he thinks of all of them
A great video Connor, Epic History is truly ( for me ) the best history channel, the Iconic narrative, the beautiful illustrations and that fantastic music that really amps up the action & drama of truly defining moments that changed history. And what's just as impressive is you Connor. To quote yourself...." Great Figures were only able to achieve what they did because of the time period that they were born in, & the structure of government that they were born into......way t'go Connor, you're even starting to sound like a historian!!! I really enjoyed this video, it's Epic in every sense of the word. Would love to hear your thoughts about the Ridley Scott movie of Napoleon and what you really made of it. Great job buddy, best wishes to you, hope you're having a great weekend, speak soon ❤
Always a good day when Epic History posts.
Although the British 🇬🇧 didn’t like him or other countries he conquered , it’s got to be said they admired him for his capabilities AND WHICH THE WORLD WILL NEVER SEE HIS LIKES AGAIN ,that’s only fair and some of his ideas and rules are used to this day a great video and have subscribed to that channel as I.did yours years ago I only hope you READ OUR COMMENTS CONNER 👏🤷♀️
