How was Napoleon finally defeated in Europe
frutty [35]

At Waterloo in Belgium, Napoleon Bonaparte suffers defeat at the hands of the Duke of Wellington, bringing an end to the Napoleonic era of European history. The Corsica-born Napoleon, one of the greatest military strategists in history, rapidly rose in the ranks of the French Revolutionary Army during the late 1790s.

The Waterloo Campaign was fought between the French Army of the North and two Seventh Coalition armies, an Anglo allied army and a Prussian army, that defeated Napoleon in the decisive Battle of Waterloo, forced him to abdicate for the second time, and ended the Napoleonic Era.

What does where we live have to do with the way we experience and learn history?
nata0808 [166]

The classic example of this divide is how, traditionally, history curriculums approach the Civil War.

While this is less the case today, 25-50 years ago, if you grew up in the South, you would have learned about the "War of Northern Aggression"

If you grew up in the North, you would have learned about the American Civil War and the South's history of slavery and the war to end the slavery.

"Traditional" History is often written by those that were victorious, so it is remarkable to see how in the modern era voices are being heard that would not have been traditionally heard.

A global society means that history is more nuanced with more perspectives present at the table of history.

But there is still a long way to go. Californians will spend lots of time learning about Sutters Fort while Pennsylvanians will learn about Fort Duquesne.
