Best quotes from Napoleonic ages: "The hardest thing for a soldier to do is retreat" - Sir Arthur, Duke of Wellington, British Prime Minister "A soldier will fight long and hard for a bit of coloured ribbon" - Napoleon Bonaparte, French Emperor and General
A true masterpiece! If I'd heard this somewhere before having bought this game I'd probably assume this music would actually be composed by Beethoven, Brahms or any great romantic composer! Damn it... I can see the world in my eyes when I hear this...
Cortes and Pizarro weren't really conquerors, they merely succeeded to to unintended circumstances that swung in their favor. There are many great conquerors in the world that are often unknown.
Isn't this song Requiem (Lacrimosa) by Mozart? Im confused because I know for sure if it is not Lacrimosa it is another song from probably the Baroque era, but in the OST it is credited to Richard something. Or did Richard just use little pieces of certain songs? Either way, this game's soundtrack is beastt
Gengis khan expanded his empire without encountering fights just face to minorities like Chinese but he simply walked and expanded its empire without a fight
napoleon bonaparte this general got the best strategy and drive france in to fame and glory with his huge empire! but he made more enemies and less friends! for that he been dystroyed in waterloo and lost many battles the france empire will be always in history! and napoleon in our hurts
My ranking is based on military strategists and gengis Khan lived a day too distant to have written proof that it was a great strategist He very well could be simple chief and not head strategist
And artillery. I don't particularly like when my opponent in NTW has "unicorns", but I don't mind using them myself to shatter the French Old Guard to pieces.
He wasn't killed by being shot in the throat, he survived. And was so impressed by the man who did it, that he made him a general. We also have no idea how he was killed - different sources suggest different things. We do, however, know that he was an incredible strategist. Stop trying to shift the goalposts, you haven't replied to a single one of my arguments, just diverted it. It's becoming quite clear that you have no idea what you are talking about. Yet apparently I'm the one fantasizing.
Also, sources: You can find The Secret History of the Mongols online, useful, but somewhat biased: Check out Jack Weatherford, good, but revisionist, and glosses over Mongol atrocities. Details on the Mongol military can be found in 'The Mongol Art of War.' JJ Saunder's History of the Mongol Conquests is a great resource too. I would also suggest looking up Dan Carlin's podcasts on the Mongols - a good introduction to the subject. Now, show me where you get your claims.
Ordinary people ARE responsible for the actions of their government. The people hold the power. It's only when they don't use it do the governments make a mockery of their country and line their pockets with the repercussions.
Himmler was head of the SS, he wouldn't be in charge either. You can't really say a single Nazi general was the conqueror responsible because modern operations are joint operations with hundreds of organizers. If you really want names though, I would say Guderian or Rundstedt and maybe Rommel (although to a far lesser extent).
Hätte der Himmel gewollt, dass ich als deutscher fürst geboren wäre, und hätten sie mich einmal zu ihrem Kaiser gewählt und ausgerufen, so scheint mir noch heute, dass sie nie von mir abgefallen wären, und ich hier heute nicht sitzen müsste. Napoleon - St. Helena
More Romantic than Classical, really. It's Beethoven-esque. Check out Beethoven's Symphony 3 "Eroica". Beethoven admired Napoleon and dedicated the symphony to him until Napoleon named himself "Emperor" in 1804, he then renamed it to "Eroica" (Heroic).
Genghis Khan conquered more than Siberia - he was in Russia (which at the time was a lot of different places), Persia, Kwarezmia (the Middle East), Han, Song and Jin China, Korea, Eastern Europe, Turkey, Georgia, Armenia, the Kara-Khitan Khanate... Ivan was impressive, but Genghis Khan established the largest land empire the world has ever seen, and he did it with unprecedented speed - faster than even the Arabs. Ivan is not on his level.
Acually the 1600s was when the Spanish Empire started its decline having fought with the Roman Catholic Powers in The Thirty Years war (1618-1648) Spain lost and had to give up its personal Union with Portugal ( Portugal becoming fully independent) 1648 was also the climax of the Eighty Years War ( 1568-1648) or the Dutch Freedom war resulting in the in Spain losing control of The United Provinces in Benelux region ( today the Netherlands).
I don't get why Bush is in the list. You're forgetting lots of East Asian conquerors as well. For instance: Huangdi and Attila. In addition, there are figures who weren't conquerors per-se, but had great and lasting impacts in many places - explorers like Balboa, Cheng-he and others.
Actually, there were; Russia fought quite a lot wars from the 1820's on - the caucasian wars, the russian intervention in the war of greek independence, the November Uprising, and then later the Crimean war and the Russo-Ottoman war. Otherwise, you have the belgian uprising (in which the french intervened), the three wars of Italian Unification, the unification of Germany and its three wars, the uprisings on the Balkans and in Austria, the Carlist War in Spain And that is only if you concentrate on Europe - on a global scale, you have e.g. the Texan War of Independence, the American Civil War, the Mexican War, the Mexican Civil War, the Boshin War, the Opium Wars, etc
lol. I can relate to your comment without doubt. But it somehow sounds so sad when you say "proud to belong to a nation that was once a great power." And today look at it haha. Its the soon to be new Mogadishu lol I'm not really laughing. When I laugh it means that I'm actually crying.
No way that Genghis Khan is not at the top of that list. The Mongol Empire is the largest contiguous land empire we've ever seen, and they did it in an impressively short amount of time.

napoleon a true military genius..
And statemen
The most striking opening theme for any game ever created!!
Of course, it is Napoleon.
The most epic leader in history.
*"My enemies are many, my equals are none"*
Davout ?
In the shade of olive trees... They said Italy could never be conquered.
In the lands of pharaohs and kings... They said Egypt could never humbled.
@@sethoogabooga In the realm of forest and snow... They said Russia could never be tamed.
But now... they say nothing
Great Britain, Prussia and Austria disliked this.
Saifthebest01
And you know the reason... ;)
Russia was most far away from France so they had the least fear, but they also had General Winter on their side.
Milan Klinko I only see 2 dislikes
+Milan Klinko Правильно говоришь
and Russia, Spain, Portugal and everyone else
i get goosebumps every single time i hear this song
after i finish playing charlemagne in attila im going back to play napoleon to continue the glory of france...
You do know he was Frankish and not French (in the modern meaning) right? France wasn't yet formed during the early medieval period.
@@christophegarcia-salvador8683 He wasn't even saying that Charlemagne was French.
This always reminds me a little of Mozart's Requiem.
This music makes me wanna conquer the world
Go nuts, my man, that's literally the objective of the game💪🏻😂
No no.. 😂 not that world
Conquer yourself, instead.
Goosebumps when the choir kicks in
Almost as great as Mozart's requiem
Honestly better, imo.
@@Kevin-be8nj Don't speak nonsense
@@supermariozaken Both are great in their own way. Stylistically very different, the feelings they emit are almost opposite
i like that how they made layers on each other, some filters and camera motions. It reminds me about how our imagination makes usual aestetics better
A true masterpiece! If I'd heard this somewhere before having bought this game I'd probably assume this music would actually be composed by Beethoven, Brahms or any great romantic composer!
Damn it... I can see the world in my eyes when I hear this...
Epic music, Able to hear the highs and lows of the music, this piece of music is definitely produced by skilled musicians.
One of the greatest soundtracks of all time
this song gives me chills :D
1:00 makes me goosebump!!!!
Can't wait for Medieval 3. CA could learn a lot from Europa Universalis IV and CK
Still waiting my man...still waiting....
2021 no news
@@winjiro at least we have 1212AD for attila...
AMAZING!!!
i am appeased. carry on :D
takes you back in time to visit and command the epic battles of napoleon
I get goosebumps from this
Without a great soundtrack a game is nothing. And this is a good theme for sure!
Es buenisimo!!!
purely epic... best main menu theme of the series in my personal opinion
Goosebumps
I prefer this any day over Medieval 2 music
Fortune favors the Bold my friend
70 dollars, and free dlc for every tw game.
+LoweWahrolen no. just no.
LoweWahrolen Am I the only one that agrees with this statement?
Who else can hear an Opera singing in the back ground? I sure can.
*When you get a good mark on a test....this happens*
Good video
Thanks, happy gaming
vive la france! vive Napoleon!
The most epic thing since sliced bread
This song kicks ass on a universal scale
*For some reason, i can imagine Bruce Wayne and the death of his parents with this music in the background*
лучшая часть в серии
I agree with you man
cok guzel..
The music in ntw is great, huge improvement from empire
the song used here is also the song used in the film Barry Lyndon
Vive Napoléon !
this is too good for napoleon total war
Wow
This song makes me proud to belong to a nation that was once a great power. Rule Britannia!!
You had in the first half lol
And rifles and several thousand indigenous allies.
@Hoekell my bad, thought you were talking about the huns. Indeed Genghis was ruthless.
All france history have a one MAN , he's Napoleon . This is truely.
And Alexender the Great.
Effectively, no fight involved.
These are different times.You can't compare them.
Cortes and Pizarro weren't really conquerors, they merely succeeded to to unintended circumstances that swung in their favor. There are many great conquerors in the world that are often unknown.
Timur the great, Tokugawa, Hanz Gudarian, Erich von Manstein, Boudica, Charles XII of Sweden, Edward Longshanks.

Definitely heavily inspired by Lacrimosa.
Napoleon Total War. Early Italian campaign to Battle of Waterloo. 💖 French Revolution, Napoleon's campaign, Napoleonic Wars & French Empire. 💖
And more without even knowing it. Did you know the hoover damn altered the tilt of the earth by 0.6 degrees? Scary...
We need a Total War Victoria which timeframe spans from 1863-1918. It needs Europe, USA, Far East and Africa theatres.
1863*-1918 kardo :D

This epick piece of music must be inspired from Mozart's Requiem!
@VinceV i thought this was just a mixed of version of the requiem i'm trying to see
This theme makes me emperor
My ranking is based on military strategists and gengis Khan lived a day too distant to have written proof that it was a great strategist
He very well could be simple chief and not head strategist
PIANO COVER HERE!
As well as its rivals in Europe. Like France, Spain and Belgium.
Vive l'Empereur!
Pour l'empereur !!
The darkest Total War theme ever.
I wish i was in the old guard fkin shit up.
war wasnt his choice,an allaince of nations was formed against him because he wasnt of royal blood and they therefore senn him as a threat
Is there a source for this quote. It is a very powerful and beautiful quote.
And artillery. I don't particularly like when my opponent in NTW has "unicorns", but I don't mind using them myself to shatter the French Old Guard to pieces.
I searched Alejandro Magno, he's Alexander.
that's actually true...

Well,the reason for that is:
They almost always have snow,they have badass defence and they are the biggest country on the world
Ordinary people ARE responsible for the actions of their government. The people hold the power. It's only when they don't use it do the governments make a mockery of their country and line their pockets with the repercussions.
Himmler was head of the SS, he wouldn't be in charge either. You can't really say a single Nazi general was the conqueror responsible because modern operations are joint operations with hundreds of organizers. If you really want names though, I would say Guderian or Rundstedt and maybe Rommel (although to a far lesser extent).

Not to mention Queen Elizabeth I and Queen Victoria.
such a good game! if only my computer could play this game on high graphics. Its to epic for my shit computer
Does this clock says the time when Napoleon died? Didnt he die in 5:49??
This theme defines huma
Gengis Khan conquered alot more than Sibiria
Are there any other pieces of music like this out there, this seems to be like its on genre but I cant find out which genre of music it is...
er , classical?
I think it is from either Classical Period or I think Baroque Period.
More Romantic than Classical, really. It's Beethoven-esque. Check out Beethoven's Symphony 3 "Eroica". Beethoven admired Napoleon and dedicated the symphony to him until Napoleon named himself "Emperor" in 1804, he then renamed it to "Eroica" (Heroic).
Oh yeah I forgot about that, my bad.
Propably the greatest general in history, hell he even conquered Afghanistan..
Its like Mozart requem

I hope there will be a Victoria: Total War - maybe from Vienna Congress up to 1920
+10Tabris01 But there were barely any wars apart from shooting defenseless Africans and then of course WW1
Actually, there were; Russia fought quite a lot wars from the 1820's on - the caucasian wars, the russian intervention in the war of greek independence, the November Uprising, and then later the Crimean war and the Russo-Ottoman war.

10Tabris01 But that is barely enough for a Total War game. TW games are set in really bloody violent periods with massive wars of conquest
And a War between three Greater Powers is not massive, or bloody, for that matter?
Which war in particular are you referring to?
The Mongols.
lol. I can relate to your comment without doubt. But it somehow sounds so sad when you say "proud to belong to a nation that was once a great power."
And today look at it haha. Its the soon to be new Mogadishu lol
