Napoleon, the birth of a myth (1769 1793)
“I found the crown of France in the mud, I picked it up with the point of my sword, and now I place it on my head.”
With this quote, “ God Save the Vintage ” begins its series of documentaries focusing on the extraordinary life of Napoleon Bonaparte, the emperor of France who, between the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th century, shook the foundations of the crowns absolutists of Europe. Before we dive into his grandest exploits and most devastating defeats, it's essential to take a step back and analyze Napoleon's humble beginnings.
It seemed that his life was destined to remain in obscurity, a member of the gentry of his native island of Corsica, recently subjected to the muskets of France which, years later, would become his. However, so as not to lose any curiosity about the early days of Napoleon, all you have to do is watch the new fascinating video proposed by "God Save the Vintage" below. Good vision!
