Obviously this video was produced several years ago well before the opening of the airport. Also, no mention was made of the internet although even today there is a very limited satellite link with the internet. We are all hoping that the island is able to connect to an undersea fiber link connecting west Africa and Brazil possibly in another two years or so. I noticed she does not use the more popular pronunciation of Saint Helena.
@@xixi1x34 no there were people and slaves living down bellow. His home was located in the upper parts of the island were it was humid. He lived relatively close to his jailer’s home.
@@xixi1x34 cute story, he got along splendidly with his first jailer, also with a little 12 year old girl named Betsy Balcombe. Napoleon would race along the road before he moved to the Longwood House. He would also chat up soldiers. After he moved to the Longwood House and Betsy left his demeanor changed. He would walk around the outskirts and look down below, but I don’t believe he was allowed to mingle with people anymore. They were afraid he would sneak messages and try to escape. His new jailer didn’t even allow him to see his wife and son nor allow family members to visit him. He complained bitterly about the climate. Eventually he barely ever left his home and sickened.
Zero mention of the new airport, open a very short time ago if I remember correctly. Does that date the piece? -- And I was disappointed to hear nothing about his remarkable disinterment and relocation back to Paris, which was quite an episode that eventually had to have had an effect on the eventual rapprochement between the UK and France through Louis Napoleon and Queen Victoria. Or the legendary young English girl who formed a kind of relationship with the Emperor, but I was most disappointed not to have heard more about the new airport, which last I saw was soon to open.
Even more than Napoleon I fondly think of visiting St Helena to appreciate Fernão Lopes’ marooning and for his spending 30 solitary years there ( he was brutually tortured for reverting to Islam in Goa , India and refusing to go back to Christianity ) and with no one arm and disfigured body , with perhaps a rooster whom he befriended that had gone overboard a passing ship. Would love to be there where he once he once might have strolled around in search of fire or forage !
“Wait who’s in charge of France?” “Mee!” Said Napoleon tying to take over Europe. *Luckily They Vanished Him Off to an Island.* But he came back! Luckily They Vanished Him to Another Island.
He was the greastest military leader ever... it took the UK , Austria, Prussia, Russia to defeat him. He didnt even want to fight in Waterloo but the UK wanted king louis back on his throne unfortunately even though the french people preferred napoleon
Saint Helena is very beautiful and wonderful place to visit if I Win my Lutto I will visit their From Bangladesh 🇧🇩🇿🇦

One of the best strategists.
Hey Shepard.
Its the best one
You mean best?
0:35 Imagine Napoleon seeing a island to turn into a small city that back in his days it was just only his House.
Really?

That’s Cape Town not St. Helena.
It's not so isolated anymore, nowadays it's just a single layover away from CDG.

Imagine if Napoleon and Robert E. Lee were on the same side at the same time.

But he came back!
Luckily They Vanished Him to Another Island.
Bill wurtz, lol
But he came back ! He fought for the Parliament
Napoleon Bonaparte was the most successful general in history. He lost only 7 battles
But the loss was a lot
like Hannibal though, won the battles but lost the war
If you want success look at Alexanders campaigns, something Napoleon himself admired
My homie Khan was the greatest
nah it was alexander
As if the Americans want to conquer South Amerika now !
There’s nothing we can do
Looks great
I wanna see this oh God can u hear me plz took me there
You ready baby. Brother said this is our second home
5:29 is Napoleon sleeping?
Its a portrait of him dying
Now they got a airport,
Why didn't Napoleon just fly away then huh?
@@iama2509 he didn't know how to fly, duh.
@@iama2509 🤦♂️. He died in 1821. The airplane was first invented by the Wright Brothers in 1903
A rabbit hole about the French Revolution brought me here..
What year is it ???
Nice video..
An average solder would have been executed but he gets to live, the British waste the money to have 3000 soldiers guard him. Privileged!
ভালো লাগলো ।
Kind of sad really
This guy was so bad that every country in Europe declared war on him alone wow
He was the greastest military leader ever... it took the UK , Austria, Prussia, Russia to defeat him. He didnt even want to fight in Waterloo but the UK wanted king louis back on his throne unfortunately even though the french people preferred napoleon
Bad is not the right word. Powerful is
Badass...could say almost entire world where most of world territory unde colonial rule
