History

kow [346]4 years ago

Napoleon enlisted Spain’s help in forming a strong navy, but he was defeated anyway.

At the time of the Battle of Trafalgar, in 1805, France and Spain were operating in an alliance. Having Spain's navy helped strengthen France's chances at sea, but it was not enough. Napoleon was an artillery man, and the French navy never achieved the strength that Napoleon's <em>Grand Armee </em>achieved on land. The British navy was the strongest naval force on the seas. Plus, the British had Admiral Horatio Nelson in command. His surprising tactics in the Battle of Trafalgar yielded victory for the British Royal Navy against the combined fleets of France and Spain. Nelson himself received a wound in the battle that cost him his life, but the battle stands in history as his greatest victory.

For Native Americans, land was not privately owned. Land was for common use of the tribe. Disputes over land were not between members of the same tribe. Often the land and territory disputes were between rival tribes in an certain area or region. Things like food collection and raising children were whole tribe activities, not solely up to the parents. Life was more communal.

Name one example of this social reform during the French Revolution
zmey [24]

In agreement with the Declaration of the Human Rights, drafted at the very beginning of the French Revolution, slavery was abolished in the French colonies overseas. For some strange reason Napoleon Bonaparte revoked that decree in 1802 during the Consulate, which resulted in the slave revolt of Haiti and ensuing independence in 1803.
