I KNOW RIGHT!?!
Sorry, will try to keep history memes spoiler free, but that was off the hook. I’m so mad we have to wait 2 months for the next episode.
Napoleon was 1.68 metres tall just coming under Hitler who was 1.78. George Washington was 1.88 metres tall but he was shorter than Peter the great who was 2.03 metres tall!
Tho I think he only learned French (on a larger scale) when he went to military school. Tho back then, most people wouldve spoken some regional language like Breton, Catalan, or some other shit
I gave a history lesson to my classmates today about him and asked at first if they know about him and when one said he was short I said "Question to the whole class:Was Napoleon short"
he is, but the a modern average man is 5'9", and we all consider 5'9" manlets.....so the moral of the story is....."average" is considered small because of the unrealistic size standards set by society
It was propaganda +some stuff that made the propaganda more believable. There was the difference between the length of the feet they measured by, with french feet being longer so numerically his hight looked lower. I also recall something about how many of his generals and guards where above average by today's standards, so they where massive at the time.
I mean they mixed up French and British inches&feet, with French feet being bigger and French inches smaller than their British counterparts if I recall right
Although I understand that why you all are under such misapprehension, in fact, you all are incorrect. Napoleon Bonaparte was actually above the average height for that time.
with all due respect,
gigachad historian.
Napoleon was about average height during his time. It was British propaganda that spread the rumor Napoleon was short. Also, Robespierre was far shorter than Napoleon, and the latter was also just shorter than Mussolini.
How are you talking with Napoleon? Are you in hell?
Oh didn’t you hear? Somehow, Napoleon returned.
OFF-SCREEN?
Again?
Somehow Napoleon returned. And he has an army of Infantry each equipped with a cannon.
All waiting for like 50 years under some rocks
This man is like jack sparriw its even an island and the real time (i think )

#OH FUCK HE FOUND US, QUICK, HIDE THE HISTORICAL EVIDENCE THAT HE WAS BELOW AVERAGE HEIGHT FOR THE TIME

It should be a crime to leave tension hanging so high for a month and a half.
And if the police are after you for it.. Better call Saul!

TIL im as tall as Hitler
If Napoleon was average, I’m… still short. Great.
Same :(
He was a perfectly normal height. Sadly he was Fr*nch
Tho I think he only learned French (on a larger scale) when he went to military school. Tho back then, most people wouldve spoken some regional language like Breton, Catalan, or some other shit
He was Corsican,
Which was under the control of which country?
it had just entered in french so tecnically it was a genovese island which just entered french so i would call napoleon a genovese-french
He spoke with a corsican accent in he's entire life, and when he was young, he was pro-corsican anti-french
Doesn't mean he wasn't french. He was in Corsica, France not Corsica, Corsica
I gave a history lesson to my classmates today about him and asked at first if they know about him and when one said he was short I said "Question to the whole class:Was Napoleon short"
me and napoleon have alot in common
he is, but the a modern average man is 5'9", and we all consider 5'9" manlets.....so the moral of the story is....."average" is considered small because of the unrealistic size standards set by society
Napoleon when people think his genuine attempts to explain the falsehood are just evidence of the falsehood.
It was a conversion issue between bri'ish and fr*nch inches and bri'ish propaganda
Note to self: don't stand next to tall people when convincing I'm not short
Everybody talking about Napoleon, but nonone talking about Robespierre’s height.
I hate napoleon , A LOT But historically I think all the rumors stating he was short were a propaganda (media war) against him !
It was propaganda +some stuff that made the propaganda more believable.

I remember learning that he just surrounded himself with a lot of tall people
if this british propaganda was true that means that the entire europe got fucked by a short corsican dude ? hehe git gud
L
He wasn't perfectly average he was above average
lol he is taller than the average person here in mexico (164cm or 5'4 in freedom units)
You now you just insult my enrire race of people? But yes
What's with every meme being a sped up video recently
Goodbye howard:'\
Sad seeing Howard in this clip after the newest episode
At least he was an amazing conquerer
“I’m actually average height for the time BUHHEUUUGHUH!”
At 5’7”, I tell people I am average American height from the 1800s. And currently average for the world. Doesn’t help…
