Why did he overextend his army by invading Egypt and Russia, instead of spending decades nation building loyal tributary countries like Germany, Poland, and Italy? Is he retarded?
>>223446779But enough about Hitler, OP
>>223446779he wanted to be alexander the great. i simply don't understand why so many people follow people like this

If you believed your armies were invincible, would you suffer the Russian to live?
>>223446779He wasn't really supposed to stay in Eygpt but their fleet got fucked. Then he ditched them at the end. He was a career climber. I don't really think he cared about actually building a strong state but conquering for the glory of it all.
>>223446779This movie sucked ass
>>223446779What was there even to gain in fucking egypte?
>>223446779Egypt was an isolated campaign.He kept fighting with Austria, Prussia, and Russia because they kept reneging on peace agreements he kept making with them because of Jewish money from Britain encouraging them to keep mobilizing armies to fight Napoleon. He married into Austrian royalty and they still betrayed him. He tried to marry Alexander's sister but they refused. All Napoleon wanted was to keep the peace on the continent and destroy British(Jewish) mercantilism.
