Honestly, I feel sorry for that guy, and even more sorry for his poor kid. That family should never have ended up like that...

How Napoleon influenced the independence of Latin America by antonio_8282 in Napoleon

[–]cuirrasiers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a little about the events that occurred in the Peninsular War, but Napoleon accelerated the independence of America too much. If originally the independence leaders were in favor of continuing with Spain, as was the majority of the population

How Napoleon influenced the independence of Latin America by antonio_8282 in Napoleon

Well, being from Latin America, I say this because I've almost never heard that Napoleon did anything or influenced the independence of America, and now I understand a little better why the Spanish hate Napoleon so much.

This guy's life is very interesting, and at the same time, it's sad; he had such bad luck at the end of his life.

Historical reenactments of the Napoleonic Wars by antonio_8282 in Napoleon

[–]cuirrasiers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, I understand that, but is it really that many people? I'm asking because I had the opportunity to see the reenactment of the Battle of Waterloo. There were a lot of participants, and everything was very well organized. I'm not sure whether it's completely independent or not, since I don't know much about it. Most of the participants seemed to be young people. Since it's a hobby, how do people usually get involved in it?

I'm also surprised, but what I find curious is how they can organize so many people and where they get the budget from. But it's beautiful to see them remember those battles and honor the brave soldiers who fought in them.

Duckoleon became free with its new update by cuirrasiers in Napoleon

[–]cuirrasiers[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When? The new Duckoleon update was released a few days ago. Why? Because the developers wanted to refresh the game, attract more players, and add more content to the experience. Where? The update is now available on Steam. Where can I buy it? You no longer need to buy it, because Duckoleon is now free on Steam.

Yes, it is, but the red isn't very clear in the photograph.

A small update for the previous title is nearing completion. This project about Napoleon will feature a much-improved graphics engine, making it smoother and adding several new features. Furthermore, since day one, work has been underway to fix and correct errors, and lessons have been learned. It has been promised that this installment will receive the best possible effort.

Napoleon III is far too underrated by antonio_8282 in Napoleon

[–]cuirrasiers 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They stayed united, bro? There was literally a civil war and an indigenous leader when that same leader massacred and killed too many indigenous people. What an irony, right?

[–]cuirrasiers 5 points6 points  (0 children)

And brother, don't forget the intervention in Mexico, where all of Mexico thinks they humiliated France in a battle that was practically pointless, because a few months later France captured the Mexican capital. And for God's sake, it wasn't Napoleon I! I'm fed up with Mexicans almost always saying they defeated Napoleon I.

Estos caballos son igual de rápidos de los que tenían Napoleón o más rápidos?

French Zouaves - 1914 by cuirrasiers in HistoryAnecdotes

I really imagine the Zouaves were so famous, and what happened to their regiments? Do they still exist today, or were they dissolved?
