100 Greatest Generals in History

This video shows the 100 generals that have won the most battles in history (according to Wikipedia).
To make that video, I created a query that searches every battle article in Wikipedia and identifies the general that won the battle.
List of battles won by general: docs.google.co...
Methodology:
1. I created a query with Wikidata Query to get the list of all articles tagged as "battle" by Wikipedia. This gives me about 12,000 battles
2. I downloaded the data that is included in the top right hand table of every of those Wikipedia article. I did it for the following versions of Wikipedia: English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Arabic, Chinese, Russian, Greek, Turkish, Serbo-Croatian, Japanese, Danish, Norwegian, Slovakian, Dutch, Polish, Hungarian, Czech, Hindi, Hebrew, Basque, Bulgarian, Romanian, Catalan, Finnish, Swedish, Vietnamese, Persian, Indonesian, Korean
3. I cleaned up the data on Excel to remove double entries

Because of the revolution France has the most skilled of its marshals fighting instead of its richest, from ney, soult, Murat, and especially davout, France had not only Napoleon but a whole arsenal of quality military minds

[@brittakriep2938]

France never fought against an enemy of same weightclass. Russia was never fully moblized . When they would have moblized all possible troops including levies of siberian cosssacks or mounted levies of the mongolian/ turkish nations , together with better armed farmers levies, invading army would be more crushed than it was. Btw., French Invading Army 600000 men, consisted of many non french. For example Württemberg and Baden, current german state Baden - Württemberg had been forced to send 22000 men, fewer than thousand men returned. Germany was divided into 300 souvereign states before 1803, and about 30 states after 1806. France never fought against turkish/ ottoman Empire, when turkish Empire was a Superpower. The only thing France did , was attacking HRE in the West, when HRE was attacked by turkish Empire in East. Shame over France, supporting muslim Nazi ideology.

[@Vagabond_Ascension]

Liar you need 7 coalitions to defeat Napoleon and his men even the French royalist was against him 🫵🫵

[@brittakriep2938]

When i wrote the comment, i had drunken too much, true. But my anger has a reason. In 1630 Thirty Years War was in a stage, where war could have been ended. From 1618 to 1630 the war was unusual long, but not overly devasting. An Imperial victory, after centuries a step to centralisation was possible. But french and swedish troops intervened, to destroy a possible centraliced Germany. War lasted 18 years longer, now, in second half, the great death came to Germany and killed a third (!) of my nation, in my homeregion about two third. And Germanys Central Gouvernement was weaker than ever. The Thirty Years War ended, and a Generation later, Louis XlV troops burnt and plundered South Western Germany. Those region was Germanys most devided region, the armies consisted of small and smallest contingents ( for example Buchhorn, nowadays Friedrichshafen, had to send four footmen). Against such troops, needed on both Sides of Empire (from 1682 also Ottoman Empire attacked) Louis XIV troops had their ,great' victories. The thing of württembergian and badish contingent of Napoleonic Russia campaign i noted. Over 20000 men of my homeregion died for the war of a dictator, which was not their case. Another note to this Russia campaign. The württembergian troops had been integrated into french Divisions/ Brigades. Württembergian Cavallry commander lost his job, he critcised french troops: The french units of our Division marched in front and plundered russian food supply storehouses, but gave us no food. So my troops had to plunder private russian civilians food, even hidden one, so we became in russian eyes ,the very bad ones'. Nobody speaks about this, also not about the cruel antiguerilla war of french troops in Spain, on smaller scale in Tyrol or lesser in Mecklenburg. In Napoleonic wars french didn' t liked partisans, Résistance, franctireurs or freedom fighters of foreign nations, but their own ones are of course heroes. The people, doing war between France and Germany are assumingly dead now, i was born twenty years after last war, i don' t see current french people as enemies or bad people, why should i do such nonsens? But this glorification , which is still often arround the name Napoleon simply annoys me.

Napoleon, although of low Corsican nobility, was a soldier of the French Revolution who made a career in the French Republican Army who fought against the French royalists during a civil war in France, French royalists being supported by foreign monarchies hostile to the French revolution. Thus, he made himself noticed for the first time by contributing by his action to take back the port of Toulon that the French royalists had opened to the English fleet. Napoleon could thus be compared to the English Cromwell who led the armies of the parliament defeated the royal armies of the Stuart dynasty.But once he came to power, Napoleon while seeking to preserve the French revolutionary achievements as the principle of"equality among citizens, promulgated a broad amnesty for exiled aristocrats of France and contributed to the religious peace France between republicans and Catholics by signing in 1802 a concordat with the pope. If it is criticized in France for its multiple wars and the resulting conscription, it has always been considered as a peacemaker inside the country so much that a very large number of its multiple administrative reforms, Schools, legal as the Civil Code, survived in the following regimes some of which were initially hostile to it as royalty restored until our present time. The best example of Napoleon’s spirit of national concord was on 22 June 1815 when he had been outvoted by the parliamentary chambers elected in the parliamentary elections of April 1815 where his political opponents were in the majority (because he had had the imprudence of not suspending or dissolving parliament before his departure for the military campaign) and while his brother Lucien and the minister Carnot asked him to arrest the parliamentarians and to establish the military dictatorship with the support of the arrest which was favorable to him in order to face the invasion of the territory,Napoleon preferred to abdicate to avoid a civil war between his numerous supporters and his royalist political opponents who supported the return of King Bourbon Louis XVIII.

Imagine crossing the alpes when no one has ever done it, losing 65% of your army there and still winning the following battle. After all of that when people think of Hannibal, they think of Hannibal lector

[@tristanfaulkner6003]

I feel sorry for Hannibal, he broke the legions of Rome and he could have actually won, which would have made history very different, but Carthage did not send enough support for him (they were not overstretched, Carthage did indeed have enough resources to overcome Rome at this point if they had actually committed to it). Hannibal's political rivals led by Hanno II repeatedly denied Hannibal's requests for reinforcements because Hanno thought Rome was unbeatable and wanted to instead focus Carthage's military on conquering territory in Africa and making peace with Rome, because Hanno had personal investments in Africa. Hanno was so convinced that fighting Rome was futile that he demoralized and delayed his own navy in the 1st Punic War and then left Hannibal's armies without backup in the 2nd Punic War. After ensuring that his own country lost both wars, Hanno then hoped to negotiate peace with Rome, but (big shocker) Rome took advantage of Carthage's weakness and took nearly everything, including all that precious African territory Hanno had claimed. Hannibal: Help me, we can win if you just help me! I only need enough for one more decisive strike before they recover! Hanno: No, we must sabotage our own armies and render ourselves defenseless. Only then will Rome leave us alone! Rome: *Destroys Carthage* Hanno: *Surprised Pikachu*

[@mangalores-x_x]

A lot of myth and few facts about Hannibal. E.g. it is unlikely he lost 65% of his army when crossing the Alpes. It is more likely the numbers from Spain were subtracted by the numbers he arrived in in Italy, ignoring that he left troops in Northern Spain (which was not under Carthaginian influence) and only crossed with his crack troops knowing the situation in Italy was unstable for Rome (with freshly conquered Gauls and Greeks being very, very unhappy and ready to rebel). Also the fact he did not receive much support is also something one must see in the wider strategic context. Rome controlled the seas and thus the inner lines of transport. In return Carthage had to split its attention between defending Spain and Africa given Rome's first reaction before Hannibal's move was to go straight for those targets with two consular armies. Both those regions were essential for Carthage to continue the war. They could not easily reinforce Hannibal and those regions needed armies, too. Just like the Romans were split on what strategy to adopt so were the Carthaginians. The idea that Hanno was a hand wringing fool is just based on the outcome, not based on the necessities as seen at the time. The war also dragged on for 17 years which is many times more any other Roman enemy held out so it is also false to think Carthage was a pushover that did not know how to mobilize armies. Most Hellenic kingdoms surrendered major territory inside one or two battles. So given Carthage gave Rome nearly 40 years worth of war all over the Eastern Mediterran we have the only other power that managed to keep up with Rome for nearly two generations worth of carnage. I find it particularly fascinating in how they apparently were able to rally a multitude of people to their banner continuously and train them to fight in a disciplined fashion.

When Napoleon was exiled for the second time, Marshal Ney was arrested and put on trial for treason. In his trial, his lawyer said that he was now Prussian and could not be tried for treason because Ney's hometown Sarrelouis had been annexed by Prussia in the Treaty of Paris. Ney ruined his lawyer's effort by interrupting him and saying "I am French and I will remain French." He was executed by firing squad in Paris. But he refused to wear a blindfold and was allowed the right to give the order to fire, reportedly saying "Soldiers, when I give the command to fire, fire straight at my heart. Wait for the order. It will be my last to you. I protest against my condemnation. I have fought a hundred battles for France, and not one against her ... Soldiers, fire!"

He was a brilliant strategist and master tactician that outmaneuvered his enemies on the battlefield on most occasions before most of them even had a chance to react.

[@MrCmon113]

Measuring generals by the number of battles they won is a bit like measuring authors by the number of pages they've written.

[@maximilianheiss5684]

yeah I mean like if you have an army with like 50k troops and then you win against an army with 2k troops you dont have to be a good commander I mean even I could win this war

[@ahmedsaidali1919]

Unfortunately, this fact has been ignored by many. Many historical personalities known to people as great military geniuses actually owe their reputation to their skilful commanders. Alexander the Great, Napoleon, and some others rose thanks to the skills of their commanders. In my eyes, the greatest military geniuses of history are as follows: 1.Khalid ibn Walid 2. Hannibal Barca 3.genghis khan 4. tamerlane 5. Julius Caesar.

Napoleon and his 9 generals are ranked in top 100. No wonder Napoleon has banished from Europe...

His generals were nothing special without him, Murat for example - great cavalry commander under Napoleon, but shit when commanding alone. Davout was the only one who deserve to be on this list. But the list itself is a joke, Douglas Haig n.11??? David Petraeus???

[@devosevolution3749]

@ LOL and Jean Lannes ?

[@napoleoncorneliusscipio5141]

I'd say Louis-Nicolas Davout was second to Napoleon, maybe even better than him (at certain points) Napoleons marshals often did most to win the battle than Napoleon, they who were in the thick of fighting and responsible for tactical victories. But Napoleon was the brain, and they were the body, so Napoleon is superior. Davout proved himself at the twin battles of Jena-Auerstadt, it has been said: " At Jena, Napoleon won a battle he could not lose. At Auerstadt, Davout won a battle he could not win." Davout was a brilliant, cunning and stern disciplinarian, who led the Grande Armée III corps, in the most trying and difficult battles, succeeding at the greatest odds. So much, that Napoleon called the III corps "my X legion." A reference to Julius Caesars tenth legion, the most reliable unit of his army.
