    Installation of the statue of Napoleon I on the Vendôme column, 1875

    The scaffolding is mounted on top of the column for the assembly of the statue. The workers and foremen pose on the scaffolding on which is fixed the sign "E DUPREZ / carpenter".

    Nah-Po-Lee-Hon, The Late Great Kan of Tartary

    Ran into this rather entertaining book. The author was pretty creative, and something tells me that he was pretty clever as well. I think there is some allegorical meaning hidden between, or may be even in the lines. Unfortunately, I’m too dumb to figure it out. Please share your opinion on...

    Napoleonic Wars and Year 1812: when did they happen?

    The Puzzle To be honest, with every day that passes, I realize that I understand the mechanism used to fake our history less and less. I am well past the point when I thought that a simple manipulation could be the answer to historical shenanigans. I still don't know if some sort of a matrix...

    1812 Battle of Borodino: Napoleon's Army and Battle Evidence

    1840: Napoleon's Funeral Carriage

    Napoleon died (on the island of Saint Helena off the coast of Africa ) in 1821, most likely (lol, sure) of stomach cancer, and in 1840 his body was returned to Paris, where it was interred in the Hotel des Invalides. With regard to the below article, who, or what do you think was being...
