      Егиа Не соглашусь. Человек (и не только он) может и делает это. Согласно современным представлениям, люди кардинально менялись буквально в течении тесячелетий, будь то смена кожи на светлую, волос с темных на белые и т.д. К слову, я сам в большинство из этого не верю, так как занимаю религиозную позицию сотворения человека, но положения этих теорий прекрасно знаю. А в качестве примера полного изменения человека менее чем за пятьсот лет получи деградацию мужчин и мужественности, которая в настоящее время идёт полным ходом, и останавливаться не собирается. Причем это при условии доступа к бракам между людьми абсолютно разных популяций, развивавшихся обособленно друг от друга. Как мы видим, чем меньше в мире остаётся традиционности и естественности - тем меньше мужики будут мужиками, а бабы - бабами.

      ***** I actually think he would've done better if he used Smolensk and the subsequent retreat of the Russian army as an opportunity to drive into more valuable areas than the one in between Smolensk and Moscow, such as Ukraine, and be able to fight Russia's army in warmer conditions, as well as seizing the breadbasket along with Russia's access to the Black Sea. Or Napoleon could have just obliterated the Russian army by preventing their initial retreat in the first place.

      The trick to beating the Russians is 1. don't attack them when they are unified and 2. Equip your goddamn troops for winter. It'll be there. The Finns handed the Russians their ass but eventually had to quit due to sheer numbers but ended up more or less favourably. The Russians did not have their hearts in it (it was not a defensive war) and the Finns were even better prepared for winter.
      The Poles sent them packing in the 1920s. The Poles battered the Red Army and rope-a-doped for a bit.
      The Russians were decisively defeated by the Japanese in 1904-05 in Port Arthur and the Far East.

      None of those were a decisive loss for the Russians. Poland and Finland was just a hiccup in their conquest of reclaiming lost land. The Germans didn’t knock them out of the war either, revolution was inevitable. Even if Lenin wasn’t there, Trotsky could have probably done it himself or Lenin could have left Switzerland himself.

    ''Relations with Spain quickly deteriorate during the operation, eventually leading to Spain switching sides, and ultimately the Peninsular War''
    Hold on, are you suggesting that Spain switched side for no reason at all? Spain switched side because napoleon betrayed Spain, when Spain let napoleon's troops pass through to take over portugal, they took over Spain instead, beggining the Spanish war of Independence.

    I have to say that France was the one who declared war to Spain. The French armies were suppossed to march to Portugal via the Burgos route, but they began marching into towns as far as Zaragoza. Later in 1808, Ferdinand, the son of Charles III of Spain made a coup (Aranjuez Mutiny). Seeing that there was no resolution on that, Napoleon convocated both of them at Bayonne, where Ferdinand abdicated in Charles, and Charles abdicated in Joseph, Napoleon's brother. However, there were members of the royal family in Madrid, and when the French forces entered Madrid and kidnapped the young prince, the Spaniards attacked the French (2 of May uprising).

Towards the end of his rule, Napoléon became very ill, which many believe to be why France was ever defeated at all.

They lost territories to United States in the north and to Brazil in the south, and became basically a mess thanks to the British, mainly, which were behind all the independence scheme.
      It’s a shame that you portrayed Napoleon as a kind of hero instead of the bastard that he really was (not just regarding Spain, but other European fellows as well). By the way, later on in that same century France tried to conquered Mexico, so I wouldn’t be that blindly grateful to the French.

Not impressive today, but, the average in France was about 5.45ft/ 1.66m... in 1900; Napoleonian wars took place on 1800-1815, so 100 years before he was just 2cm above average. On the other hand, his imperial guards were expected to have at least 6ft/1.83m of height, so it is quite easy to say he was short, and one should not forget Englishmen were always trying to belittle him (pun intended 🙃)

That was not the only army, as said before, there were isolated armies in Spain that should not be belittle, since they won most of the first battle against France. Actually, they won the very FIRST battle against the Napoleonic Empire, led by a Spanish general. And also, the first years the English and Portuguese didn't helped the Spanish at all, quite the opposite, they would do anything possible to ignore Spain's ask for help, or actually say they would help and in the last moment back up on their word, apart from the raping, sacking and burning of Spanish cities after "liberating" them from the French invaders. More than helpful, they were a burden, to put it midly, but they were really just another invading and destructive force (and it is well known that their intention was to actually invade Spain after expelling the French, they just concluded that it wouldn't be that easy and let it be). It is indeed when Wellington was finally in charge that things changed for the better, but he was not in charge from the very beginning.

      Yep, had Portugal accepted Napoleon's ultimatum and cut all trade with England like every other European country had done, the British would have been starved to death before they could even fight Napoleon. Because Portugal didn't accept it, Napoleon invaded and the Royal Family fled to Brazil, while the army and people resorted to guerrilla warfare against the French. The British then arrived to Portugal and with the help of the Portuguese pushed Napoleon back into France. Once Napoleon was defeated, the Portuguese Empire was in shambles, since we had spent all our money in the war, and shortly thereafter Brasil fought and gained independence, and after that, to add insult to injury, Portugal entered into a civil war. Through all of that the British decided to help many of our enemies, buy our most profitable companies and destroy our textile industry, the backstabbing bastards.

      +paul Men don't forget that Spain had secretely signed an alliance with Prussia just before the Fourth Coalition. In 1808, the son of the king of Spain, Ferdinand VII, was making a coup d'état at Aranjuez. Ferdinand was anti-french, and he could easiky enter in war against France with thr support of Portuguese and British troops. The invasion was a sort of preventive attack. If you were on our place, you will not think differently.

      @lechad8686 2 года назад

      Austria's constant war with France was what brought down Napoleon. While other European monarchies bowed down to him, he had to pour countless men and resources at fighting the Habsburg realm, getting beat at Aspern and could've been defeated at Wagram even. France was near collapse before Bonaparte's Italian campaigns that ended the Revolutionary Wars.

    Napoleon's biggest mistake was setting up the Continental System. Without it, there would have been no reason to invade Spain or Russia. All he had to do was keep beating the coalitions; and eventually, Britain would have sued for peace because they wouldn't have been able to afford funding endless coalitions.
