What is the /his/ view of Napoleon?

As a British person I think he shouldn't have been denied free travel within the British isles (As he was when he was captured, due to worries about his cause gaining popular cause among the peasants and such), because given what he believed in I feel he should have conquered the British isles.

The world would be a better place had we not won the Napoleonic wars desu.

Krauts got hanged but all the Kraut scientists got swooped up in Operation Paperclip.
The same thing happened here, the American military granted all the physicians immunity in exchange for all of their research and findings.
Who knows how much of Unit 731's research has permeated the medical sciences of today.

Was there any chance of the Gallic Empire and/or Palmyrene Empire surviving? Also would their survival ensure the collapse of Rome or would it still be able to recover from the Crisis of the Third Century?

Are things like good, evil, morals and ethics ultimately subjective and thus pointless?
If so, why bother having any phil/his/ophical threads anymore?
Why follow any morals?
If not, how can you prove it?
Why would we care?

They are contingent, not subjective, though they ultimately refer to subjective desires about the way the world ought to be.

Even if they were subjective you could still discuss them.

There's no such thing as evil. Nobody wants to be evil, we just do the best we can. But since we have conflicting opinions, it turns out its easier to disqualify the opposing party as evil.

Lets talk about Chomsky and his work in Linguistics, specifically his views on recursion and Everett's claims about Piraha lacking it. Is this true? Or are Chomsky's claims about Everett being a charlatan more true?

Religion is an anthropological constant throughout human history. In addition, the occult, spirituality, and other forms of divination have been present in almost every human society.

If the idea of God were to have an evolutionary basis, why isn't their a consistent global monoculture of religion that would have developed independently in various parts of the world? Why are the religions of more "archaic" societies based on animism and many deities while more organized ones tend to be monotheistic? What explains the trend from simple to complex and changing religious practices?

Atheists please keep the fedora out of this; this is an anthropological discussion, not an existence, non-existence of otherworldy things ones.

If he was nationalistic and liberal

Why did he created an empire with Catalans, Dutch Germans and Italians?

Germans from Lorraine don't apply since they are French wannabes

Also it's wrong to find Napoleon good looking in his young pictures?

France's survival depended on the spread on Enlightenment ideas. France's chances of pulling off the Revolutionary Wars again would not be so good. As such, France needed to expand to gain more fighters and resources.
