Your information about Napoleon is higly wrong. He wasn't teased in academy because of his stature, he was teased because he spoke horrible French as a child(since it was his second language, his mother tongue being Italian) and because despite his French he was the best student out of all which made all the other boys jealous. He didn't leave Corsica because of power steuggels he was sent to prison because he lead an armed rebellion against the French and killed 2 civilians. On his way to prison he came across the rebels in France and joined them against the government but later switched sides and got pardoned by the king for his help putting down the rebels. The short stature thing is a load of bullocks, he was completely normal height. It was the British propaganda that portrayed him as the "small guy who wants all" and this was reinforced by the fact that there was no metric system yet, and French feet and inch were smaller than the British. This means that if you were 5"4 in France, you were around 6" in England

He wasn’t that short for the time, about 5’6”, which by modern day accounts is short but for the 18th/19th century was quite tall

[@FabianCedeno]

I did one of them test and I was told we shared a male figure ancestor. That could be a grandfather. I thought it was cool 🙌🏽. My biological grandfather was Italian. I hope to find out the more information one day.

Okay we got it you have a Patreon lol other than that great work!

[@TitoTitoTitoTito]

How did I miss this?!?

[@JuanVilorio]

Really good video, although I have one problem. Napoleon was not really short the time, he was average size

[@ThorTheIceman]

Napolen was taller than avarega person at the time. He is said to be short because french feet were bigger at time than brittish so this is why he was fan of metric system

[@kaiserwilhelm3933]

Well, I would use also use Napoleonic Empire (although it sounds a bit like a Greater Naples) instead of Bonapartist Empire.

[@kingusernamelxixthemagnificent]

I think that Napoleon III has still living descendants which carry the surname Bonaparte.

[@thearmada6248]

No his only son died in the Zulu wars.

[@fredbarker9201]

THE ARMADA how did a Bonaparte end up fighting in the English army is what I want to know ?

[@AidenRKrone]

The notion that Napoleon was short possibly comes from the fact that when he was accompanied by his royal guards, which were purposely chosen due to both their skillsets and sheer height, he appeared short. In actuality, he was average height for a Frenchman of his time. If anything, his royal guards were insanely tall.

[@itzjonny942]

Great and interesting video

[@DefinitelyFakeGrantOBrien]

He was 1.67m, slightly taller than the average Frenchman during the 18th/19th century

0:41 WHICH ONE IS IT!!!

[@felixblanchard7349]

Prince Jean Christophe Napoléon went to HEC Paris and Harvard, and is now an investment banker. Also, he married an Hapsburg princess

[@marcusblum7462]

The way Al Bundy puts his hand in his pants makes him related to Napoleon.

[@doublechinultimate3394]

great vid very interesting

[@cebonvieuxjack]

3:06 Not the little "king", Idk where you got that from. He was however called the "Aiglon" (little eagle) but "King" was never heard concerning Napoleon or his close ones. Simply for the fact that first, he was an Emperor, not a king, and second King was still a dirty word in France. Remember that the France in which Napoleon lived was a post-revolutionary France, the Kings and all of their symbols were seen as representative of the Ancient Regime, and a symbol of tyranny and bigotry. Imperator however, had a better connotation...

[@MajorDenisBloodnok]

Napoleon I was Emperor of the French and king of Italy, his son was titled king of Rome...

[@MartinaValla]

Bonaparte - or buona parte - doesn't mean "part good" but "good side" or "good part". Some adjectives can go both before and after the name in Italian. Bonus: the "opposite" is Malaparte

[@kyrgyzjeff4550]

Haha, little (pun not intended) did those bullies realize, that the kid thy pestered would become their Emperor!

[@19madmod6960]

20 years ago there was claim that there was another bonaparte living in northeast India that owned a vineyard who might be a close descendant of Napoleon.

[@allenmorgan6847]

Are there any Lincolns living

[@bearlogg7974]

imagine being a relative of the Napoleon & all you inherit from him is the genetics of the penguin from batman

[@hglundahl]

I checked French wiki. Since 2012, it is no longer Charles Napoléon, but Charles Bonaparte

[@ulugbeglu]

he also had a special part in the garden of the school which he defended against invaders by attackin then with a pickaxe.

[@simoneradice149]

buona parte means a good portion-chunck
