The Little Theater of Operations - The Ox and The Burgundian

During the Napoleonic Wars, many nations made the terrible mistake of trying to separate an ox from its Burgundian (please refer to the famous beef bourguignon, a french traditional recipe from the Burgundy region.).Everyone paid badly the consequences of that, as it isn't a good idea to make the French feel bad about their gastronomy. This story ended under the Arc de Triomphe, and it laid the foundation of the film "Taken."
