    I absolutely am convinced that it was Lucien, not Napoleon, that made the 18 Brumaire Coup what it is in the history books. Literally, the fate of the coup, Napoleon’s career, the course for the French Republic, and the course of not just European history, but in the history of the entire world, ALL of it literally rested on the shoulders of Lucien Bonaparte at that moment when he pressed that sword tip into his brother’s chest.
    I’m not trying to downplay Napoleon here, but we can’t overlook how much this day was saved for him by his younger brother. Call it theatrics if you want, but it truly was a performance that changed world history and the fate of the Bonaparte family’s destiny.

    I'm not sure what else Napoleon could do when the political groundwork seemed to have failed. He had done his groundwork and had most of the nearby Military on his side and surrounding the politicians, so when it went sideways he could and did just send them in. I guess they would have preferred a political coup rather than a military one but it was always on the cards. Kudos to them though for at least managing to keep it a partial one and keeping it a relatively bloodless one.

    I look at the similarities/differences between the revolutions in Britain and France.
    For the glorious revolution England's Parlement has already rejected the idea of an absolute monarch once and executed that monarch's father for treason against the people. Now his son tries the same thing so they depose him using his 'unpopular' decision to convert to become a Catholic- but replaces him with Protestant relations in his daughter and her Dutch husband, it is decided that the politicians needed was a figurehead for the country not a leader.
    In France they take a different point of view, the non nobles and cleric's have had no historical power as the 3rd estate because they were always opposed by the first two, but whilst this works in an uneducated age before the reformation there are now educated 'peasants' and they realize that they had the theoretical numbers on their side with 90% of the population.
    So they depose the king and a council takes over, but not as yet knowing what to do with this ex-monarch and his familly or the nobility/church. Eventually they come up with the peasants council arrives at the brutal and extreme solution - exterminate the people who previously held the power.....so now the gloves are off and anyone with any ambitions to grab power is now in play.
    Unfortunately for France the situation continues after Napoleon exits with the country flirting between democracy and monarch with reinvention of the Republic with each becoming successively weaker during the 19th century till they lose the Franco-prussian war in 1870; contrast this with the power of Britain in that century as the periods only superpower by deem of "owning" the sea lanes and almost a monopoly of world trade control

    4:25 From the perspective of Edmund Burke, who has been dead for two years at this point, this is further vindication of what he wrote in 1790 and 1791. Keep in mind that this was before the reign of terror that he wrote his famous Reflections and in that work his main thrust was that the attempt to re-engineer the whole of society, would lead to chaos and tyrannical oppression. Also that in the midst of such chaos there would come a desperate desire for stability, at almost any price, and that is where get the likes of a Bonaparte. In many ways Burke (who was very much a political outcast having stuck with the liberal Whig faction against William Pitt the Younger for the 1780s, only to break with them over the French Revolution) becomes after death far more credible and one of the most influential figures for conservative politics going forward, precisely because the events in France track very closely to what Burke predicted in his writings almost eight years prior.

    Napoleon had already committed an atrocity before this, the massacre at Jaffa in March 1799. After a siege the Turkish garrison of the fort of Jaffa surrendered. Napoleon was having trouble feeding his own troops let alone 3000 Turkish troops. He feared that if he just let them go the would move on to the next fort so he lined them up on the beach and forced them into the sea at bayonet point.

    So many similarities to the divisions we see in our country today. We must never return to a time when political violence is seen as inevitable or acceptable. Because each everyday citizen really only has influence over their own side, folks must focus on the radicalization in their own communities and on their own side of the political isle being unafraid to temporarily withdrawl support when things near a turning point. Problem today is we have so much more information but hlaf of it is BS.
    I feel the only real use of history besides entertainment and appreciation, is to influence the present and future. We have so much more access to info today than back then so it seems the best way to determine which sources are trustworthy is to read bills proposed and signed, read court transcripts, listen to your opposition, and most importantly approach information from your side with the same level of skepticism and doubt as you do information from the other side.
