Josephine went from the daughter of a Caribbean plantation owner to the wife of a prominent French aristocrat. After her husband was guillotined during the revolution, she caught the eye of an up and coming soldier named Napoleon. He wrote her romantic letters while conquering much of Europe and when he became Emperor of France he made her his Empress. But his consuming passion for her also led to some serious relationship problems. Her inability to provide him with an heir ultimately led him to leave her for a younger princess.

@@genera1013 For real. Idk what's the problem of the commenter above, but this is an actual quote from Napoleon II: "If Josephine had been my mother, my father would not have been buried at Saint Helena, and I should not be at Vienna. My mother is kind but weak; she was not the wife my father deserved". To be fair, his mom Marie Louise did screw up any (if slim) chance of herself becoming regent and her son staying emperor. Napoleon II was 4 years old at that time, so it's not like he could do anything for himself. And then it was too late. He was raised at the court of his maternal grandfather, deprived of his French roots, abused by his Austrian tutors, not allowed to do anything meaningful with his life, and died of TB at the age of 21. His mom never actually loved or needed him very much and was perfectly happy in her new shiny duchy, with her new shiny morganatic husband and new shiny children. Great. Now I'm irrationally angry and sad for some guy who died long ago.

@@Imperator-vo4to Following Napoleon’s exile, Marie began an affair with an Austrian count Adam con Nieppberg (who lost an eye fighting the French) and when Napoleon regained his throne during the Hundred Days, instead of riding back to Paris to be by his side as Empress, she wrote a letter asking for a divorce, which he refused. She lived openly with her new lover, moving with him to Parma (a duchy she had been granted by the Coalition). Within months of Napoleon’s death Marie, who had already given birth to two illegitimate children, married Adam, a shockingly low match for an Austrian Archduchess. The deeply unpopular husband and wife were targeted by an uprising in Parma, where Marie was nearly deposed.He died of illness a few years later, after which she made an even lower match by marrying her chamberlain. She and her son Napoleon François had a rocky relationship, as he spent most of his life away from her in Vienna, and once stated he wished Joséphine had been his mother.

Oooo can't wait for this! Despite her being a widow with kids at a time which such women were consider hags by society (at over 26 you are a hag)... but Napoleon didn't care! He truly deeply passionately loved her to pieces! He was more upset over the idea he couldn't have kids with her, because of her age (menstruation periods ended earlier for women back then so by late 30s early 40s Rose Josephines' real name couldn't have kids). Napoleon still financially supported her and the kids of her first marriage. She originated hated or disliked Napoleon, but due to her circumstances and how society was cruel and nasty towards widowed women with kids she grew to love him and even appreciate him, especially her later years. You could say she grew up loving him as much as he loved her at first sight. Napoleons' relatives hated her, and what did he do? Crowned her his empress... mega middle finger to the in-laws if you ask me. I love her story and her relationship with Napoleon, so I am definitely watching this!

@danaglabeman6919 6 месяцев назад

Josephine's infertility had absolutely nothing to do with her age. And menstrual periods did NOT "end earlier back then" Many, many famous women throughout all of history have had children well into their 40s and even later: Thomas Cromwell's mother was 50 when he was born. Not to mention Josephine was not even at that age: she married Napoleon when she was 31. Josephine caught at least one and maybe several bouts of asymptomatic stds, probably gonorrhea, while in prison during the Revolution. The infections inflamed her fallopian tubes and left behind a blockage of scar tissue.

@CA-bw9vw 6 месяцев назад

It's hard to swallow with our modern romantic lens, but I believe Napoleon did love Josephine. Yes, he annulled their marriage. But the peace and prosperity of his whole empire and his entire legacy rested on having an heir. If the son of his brother and her daughter lived, he might not have done that. He was backed into a corner. Still, he stayed with her for longer than most modern marriages last. He secured the futures of her children, which is much more than what modern men would do for the children of other men. He showed her more respect than most modern men show their women. And he still remembered her on his death bed. I bet he regretted annulling her then.

You don’t learn history from statues. They don’t exist to teach, they exist to glorify. You learn history from history books just like you learn maths and English from books. If you can learn calculus without visiting a statue, you can learn history without a statue

I think I heard she's from the Caribbean so why is she depicted as white please? I'll be grateful if you answer this please. You're doing a great job❤️

She already said in the video that her family were white colonists living in the Caribbean.
