I am not sure Napoleon was ever really himself after the Russian campaign. What he expected after his victory at Borodino and what really turned out was very different. Expecting the Russians to surrender only having them chase him all the way back to France may have put some doubt in his mind. Maybe that doubt is what affected his decisions at a place like Waterloo. I know in sports that if you loose your confidence it can be hard to get back. I imagine the same could be said about war generals. Just a thought. Enjoyed the post.
The Ideal People of *Your Nation
-
what group of People do you think should your Ideal Dream Country glorify?? we all know in the USA its the Businessman and the Industrialist and in Soviet Russia it was the lowly Worker, but lets here yours :)
if there are any options i left out say so and ill add the option ;)
-
… thinkers and writers …
-
Like the fact that you have Scientist up there,
but i’d go with “health-care-professional” ;) -
Well I think that Merchants, Labourers, and Soldiers need glorification to be successful, Scientists and Artists are driven to do what they do, so unfortunately, do not require near as much praise for thier efforts.
I don’t know if glorify is the correct term, but I do believe that Scholars and educators deserve the greatest reward.
Although Engineers should have some mention
