NAPOLEON, son Armee, son camp - LE PORTEL PLAGE

[jchdmeisan]

Napoleon est basque.

[evabrown281]

Pour mettre tout le monde d'accord (entr' autre 'Cumbas'. Napoléon Bonaparte est né à Ajaccio, donc en corse, en 1769!! Voilà...

[cumbas]

@evabrown281

??

Comme si j'ignorais cela LOL

Et à mon tour pour te remettre à ta place et recadrer les "choses historiques", puisque tu sembles l'ignorer, la Corse en 1769 est déjà une partie intégrante et une région de France

Donc il est bien né français

CQFD

Voilà...

Vidéo pour le moins amusante, avec commentaires assortis.

.

Part 1

The name "France" comes from the Franks wich was a german tribe. They became the Merovingians and are at the very roots of french royal families.

The Merovingians conquered most of this part of western continental Europe: Burgundy, Provence, etc...

[Ndriana]

.

Part 2 -

To make a long story short, this area became known as the Franks Kingdom (Frankreich or Royaume de France and later République Française) and that kingdom or republic invaded/occupied/annexed several surounding lands like Britany and Corsica...

All that to say, that out of northern-east France, there's no REAL Franks. And Franks are just part of whole. Being French is being citizen of the republic, it's not a geographical, religious or ethnical matter. SO NAPELEON IS FRENCH!!

[cumbas]

no enough things to explain the evidence

Of course Napoleon is french!!!

Because he was born in France, Corsica is a french territory when Napoleon was born !!!

Quite simply

[MaleFox1]

I am in This Video at point 4:47 that makes me happy

[5simplet9]

Wouaaa :)

I'd like to be there!

Dont be so plain. Yes Napoleon was born in Corsica ,every one on the planet knows that. But he was born after Corcica became French lands. Corsica nor The states of what will one day turn into Italy. Franch made him who he was, educated him, influenced him etc. France was his home, as Corsica rejected him and his family. And Victory to Spain? If you think a pack of brigands murdering solders as they slept in the night glorious.Then you can have that sad honor.The only Glory belongs to Bonaparte!

[EUROMANLU]

...though he later adopted the more French-sounding Napoleon Bonaparte. Napoleon wrote to Pasquale di Paoli - leader of a Corsican revolt against the French - in 1789: "I was born when my country was dying. Thirty thousand French, vomited on our shores, drowning the throne of liberty in waves of blood- such was the horrid sight which first met my view." wikipedia

De quoi tu parles?! He is a French indeed but he was more clever than us!

[103littlebastard]

Well said..well said. Indeed, more clever than us....he is of the quality that surpases the meaning of the word 'Glory'.

[EUROMANLU]

thank u! well said

[NapoleonCalland]

The letter he wrote to Paoli was what he felt at 19/20 years old about the invasion of Corsica.

Don't assume that a person's identity never changes. Napoleon was always a Frenchman, but his Corsican heritage came first when he was a young man because he started life as a foreigner surrounded by the sons of French aristocrats who thought their titles were more noble than his. Like Fridomfry says, he had every claim to be French and became genuinely attached to France, not just to Corsica.

[103littlebastard]

'NAPOLEONwasITALIAN'..stop making a fool of your self. If he was Italian hed be buried in Pizza-land, not Les Invalides. Great video. Thanks for posting it.

[pinquifrustri]

Napoleone Buonaparte was Corsican, neither Italian nor French. Nontheless he devoted his life to the gratness of France. Fortunately we the Spaniards defeated him and his Grand Armée 200 years ago.

[NAPOLEONwasITALIAN]

NAPOLEON WAS ITALIAN!

[Alpha1Bravo1Charlie1]

Corsican. Corsica was French at the time.

[pinquifrustri]

Corsica was occuped then and now by France, but it is not, it will never be, a French land. Corsica è Corsica, ùn Francia

[Kortab25]

No , France buy Corsica ...

Connard inculte

[Fridomfry]

I don't understand why some warped minds question Napoleon's French citizenship..

Napoleon was born in Corsica after this island had been acquired from Genova by France. He was educated in Burgundy and Champagne with a grant from the French king. He became a French officer and embraced the French revolutionary cause. When he became a great leader, he was free to decide whatever he wanted to do. And he never thought of using his power for another cause than France. So?

[NapoleonCalland]

The King of France and Navarre, Louis XV, bought Corsica from the Genoese who realised that if they didn't sell Corsica it would become independent and they would lose it.

In the meantime, Paoli was setting up a Corsican state, so the French had to buy AND THEN INVADE Corsica to claim it. And Ndriana is right, being French is about belonging to France, not about being part of a religion or a region or an ethnic group.

THE ONE AND INDIVISIBLE REPUBLIC!
