Napoleon in Egypt Wrap-up with Extra History LIES
🕑 Added 2023-06-02 17:30:01 +0000 UTCWelcome Extra Historians to Lies, where we talk about the mistakes we made and the details we couldn't quite squeeze into our Napoleon in Egypt Series. With questions like, why did the French invade Egypt without knowing anything about the country? What happened to Admiral Nelson's arm during the series? And how did French baguettes inspire so much food around the world?

Oops wrong title! John Brown and Napoleon were on VERY different ends of the racism-spectrum.
