“There’s No Kill like the Overkill” : An Examination of Napoleon (Great Leaders You Should Know, pt. 4)
Update: 2021-03-23
Description
Neither Aaron nor Jason speak French, but we’re going to talk about the most famous Frenchman in history (even though he was actually Corsican), Napoleon! Topics covered include Napoleon’s being declared an “Antichrist” for his pro-Jewish (or at least not antisemitic enough for some peoples’ standards) stances, an historical conspiracy theory about the English having Napoleon assassinated in his exile, and the reason the U.S. didn’t adopt the metric system.
