The Napoleonic Empires/French Empires : Every Month 

This video shows the two Napoleonic Empires that have ever occured, one from 1804 until 1815 and the other one from 1852 until 1870.
The First french Empire was a continuation of the French revolution and managed to conciliate Republican/Revolutionnary ideals with the concept of monarchy.
With the fall of Napoleon in 1815, the Bourbon monarchy was restored with Louis XVIII as the King until 1824 (then it was Charles X).
The Second French Empire occured from 1852, following the military coup of 1851 where Louis-Napoleon Bonaparte (the nephew of Napoleon I) protested against the constituion which didn't allow them to stand for a re-election (his mandate was coming to an end but he still wanted to be in power). The Scond Empire collapsed on 2 September 1870, when Napoleon III capitulated at Sedan.
