@lomax343 6 лет назад

3:02 Napoleon didn't order the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire. The last Emperor - Francis II - abdicated and declared the title abolished, re-inventing himself as the Emperor of Austria. It is said that at least part of his reason for so doing was to prevent Napoleon from claiming the title of Holy Roman Emperor for himself.

@KingsandGenerals 6 лет назад

Thank you. We worded it poorly.

@DarthPlato 6 лет назад

You are correct about Francis, but this topic is more complicated than one might think. I highly doubt Napoleon would've taken the title HR Emperor, but he almost certainly would've claimed Charlemagne's legacy and the imperial prerogative. If not for himself, then certainly for his son, born 1811. It's clear from Napoleon's commentary that he had no respect for the HRE as a modern institution, so it's more likely he would've had it lapse. Charlemagne's imperial legacy would simply pass to France, just as Rome's prerogative was passed on to Charlemagne in 800, or so the story goes.

@pmbartoli919 5 лет назад

And the HRE wasn't created in 800, but in 962 (about?) by Otto, to be precise. The Karling Empire was just the Frank Empire.

@maxion5109 5 лет назад

@@pmbartoli919 no the holy roman empire was indeed created when charlemagne was crowned in 800, but that wasn't the official name at the time. The HRE was coined later by german kings but the it's the same political and spiritual entity which the ottonians inherited.

@pmbartoli919 5 лет назад

@@maxion5109 I agree there is a wanted filiation between the HRE and the Carolingian Empire, as there is betw both and the Western Roman Empire. But the HRE is a recreation after an imperial interregnum after the end of the Carolingian Empire. The two are close, but the HRE, as it continued until 1806, is created in 962 with Otto's renovatio imperii: he recreates not Charlemagne's empire but the Roman Empire, and if he has to proclaim the renovatio imperii, it's because there were a few decades without an empire.

For those who read Clauswitz "On the war", this battle is the starting point of Clauswitz and of 150 years of prussian/german military doctrine (with also Napoleon's invasion of south germany during 3rd coalition war which will create the modern notion of strategi)

@jojolapatate6662 6 лет назад

Good video but too bad, you didn't really talk about all the small important decisions made by the generals. For example, the Landgrafenberg plateau was taken during the night because the prussian thougt it was impossible to climb and Napoleon ask his troops to take it and then built a small road for the artillery, giving a really good start position (the battle was decide at this moment I think) while Davout choose to take one by one every small village to keep the line. Every time a part was winning, he reinforce the others to make the whole army going at the same speed to keep a solid line. (I'm not an expert but that's what I understood).

I would imagine, since they regularly get a lot of foreign visitors, that they might want to have such a nice informative video at display there. The museum is quite small and it's capacities and financial options are rather small, I suppose.

As a french, we learned in history class that Napoleon was a military genius and a great conqueror, but I can understand why he was seen as a dangerous monster in the rest of Europe, because of fear and propaganda. It's as if we saw the conquest of Persia by Alexander from the point of view of the persians. Anyway I really enjoy these videos even if I don't really like this period of history, great work from a great channel !

@KingsandGenerals 6 лет назад

Thank you very much! Please, consider sharing, if you have a chance. Also, which time period would you like to see? I really want to appeal to the French audience.

@mickaellharidon4188 6 лет назад

Yeah I shared it with a friend, big fan of Napoleon, I'm sure he'll like it. I'd say the main problem with the french audience is the language barrier, many french don't enjoy seeing videos or films in english unfortunately. You may have some success with french subtitles or a partnership with a french history channel on RU-vid like Nota Bene for example but I can't promise results even though I hope you'll get the recognition you deserve. :)

nice video... i still live in this region in the City Apolda, which you can see on the battle map. I must say that its a very accurate documentary from your side... and a main fact why the french won this battle is because they had higher ground through the Landgrafenberg, which is very high when you know that this region is like a dale towards my hometown and the prussian army couldnt really organize because they were surprised by the early attack of the french in the morning. the first what the prussian army heard was the thunder of the french cannons. how i said... its a very good video and i love it... thumbs up and greetings from germany :P

Can you do a video on Napoleon conquering the island of Malta, and how the Knights of Malta went to Rome.

@KingsandGenerals 6 лет назад

Depending on how the next few videos will do, we might circle back and cover more obscure battles.

@PPandaPete 6 лет назад

great video! Can you please make one about Friedrich 2? You always hear how he fought back against the coalition, but not how.

@KingsandGenerals 6 лет назад

Thank you! There will be a whole series of videos about him.

Yep, we are working on it. :-)

Today is the 103 Year Anniversary of this titanic struggle. I think watching Kings and Generals is the way to commemorate this epic battle.

Delivering as promised, and with the customary quality. By the way, is there any specific book you might you want to single out of your sources for this mini-series to recommend to us the viewers?

@KingsandGenerals 6 лет назад

Thank you very much! To be honest, I cheaped out on the books this time around - I have a bunch of Russian books on Napoleon and used them. If you are still interested, I can compile a list.

@VRichardsn 6 лет назад

Oh, I don´t want to trouble you. I have a couple of the usual (Elting, Chandler) and I was just curious if you had something novel I should read. Thank you for your answer!

@KingsandGenerals 6 лет назад

Thank you for the question. :-)
