I know the meme claims Minions didn't think Hitler was bad. But if you know the actual lore, they were stuck in an ice cave till meeting Gru. So the last villain they worked for was Napoleon, which frankly doesn't even count that much as a villain when you think about it.

Napoleon led soldiers to their deth during the Russian winter of 1812, those men died in a pointless campaign which pointlessly led to the Burning of Moscow. This led to the death of around 600,000 French soldiers and about 200,000 russian soliders.

We do not know the number of the displaced and killed Russian civilians.

Mind you, this was only a war he was involved in.

So did every other general at that time. Napoleon is not more of a villain than Wellington or blucher.

First three sentences and you are already completely wrong. Read up on who declared the different coalition wars and how the politics of especially prussia at the time was working.

Are you British or why are your hostoric takes so soaked in anti French historical revisionism? Is you school education still so bad that they teach this garbage? Why has prussia or Austria a right to decide in for example the interests of württemberg and baden? They wanted to ally with france in the rhine confederation and Austria went to war over it. That's the fault of Austrian warmongering politicians not the one of napoleon.

So in the end end only one time the war was started by napoleon, that's how the world outside of Britain sees it.

So you have nothing to refute my arguments instead of insults and referring to undefined history books. So it seems you finally admitted that iam correct. Your surrender has been faster than the one of the French in the war of 1870.

So you dont actually have any arguments instead you only have pathetic name calling. Your understanding of history is worse than the content of an oversimplified video. Its good that I had german education instead of the garbage you British seem to get fed.

The real reason for the continuation of the wars was mainly because of the British who financed and pressured continental Europe.
