How Napoleon Rewrote Banking to Fund His Empire

Can you do some history on tariffs and consequences?

The AI imagery is okay, but when you're talking about the Assignat, you really should show a real image of one and not a weird fantasy note.

In my seven years of Trading the financial markets I've realised that very little changes when it comes to politics and economics

Takeaway. Mind your finances if you want a strong country. Trust in a government is found in trust in the currency. Credit goes to trust, first and foremost. How is trust lost? If you want to live under a stable and just government, you must have faith that the government will mind the currency and the credit. Failure to do this undermines the strength of the country, and ultimately the trust of the people. This ongoing debate about the independence of The Fed goes to this age-old government problem, trust! The debate over the mere existence of a central bank goes back to before and during the Constitutional convention. Jefferson argued against a central bank, as he obviously had no faith or trust in a central bank, actually going so far as to say that it was the Bank of England that lead to the revolution against England in the first place. Hamilton was all for a central bank, arguing that the issuance of treasuries, debt issued by the government and backed by the taxpayer, would stabilize the financial structure, thus create trust. Government credit could be established and maintained through a treasury market, thus form a basis for faith in the government. Looks like Hamilton wanted faith in the government, vs Jefferson wanting the people to cast a worrisome eye on the government. Jefferson seemed to believe that too much faith in a government is the beginning of the end to that civilization, and so he wanted the people to control the money, working at the local level with local banks. The Constitution makes no provision for a central bank, and states that it is Congress that will coin the money. Jefferson won, but the debate has never been resolved. The Constitution does not provide for a central bank, yet we have one anyway. Not only that, we have one that says that they are independent of government, even though they were established by an act of Congress! They have gone totally rogue, with extreme power and influence on all the people, and even control of the government. The President says that he wants to reign them in. They say that he can't. Will the debate be resolved this time?

Incredible videos on this page. Subscribed

Ah, Central Bank with private investors. Like the Bank of England? Like the Fed? I wonder who the private investors were.

Does anyone else wonder if this is all AI generated? Where is the source material?

Can anybody have any account of a history that have crushed somebody who didn't know it?

Thx a lot😊

Fully AI is crazy

Thank you for your videos. I love the Truth of Historic Finance theme of it.

Excellent video. "Money is only as strong as the taxes behind it." I heard that line and subscribed immediately.

Napoleon administration system was so strong that every government in France continues it : monarchies, revolutionary government, republics …

The AI imagery is distracting. If it weren’t distracting I wouldn’t care as much, but it’s just bad enough to be a problem.

Please just use historical photos rather than turning the video to slop posting.

I can tell the writings AI. Don’t use AI it’s obvious and sounds bad

the narrator sounds like an AI that almost understands intonation. the intonation errors really take me out of the content. incredibly annoying

Gold standard wins in long run.

HERE IN FRANCE WE ARE WATCHING A DÉFAUT MANY COUNTIES...LIKE FOREVER WAR MASTER USA AND NATO NATIONS.....SIT BACK WATCH WHILE RUSSIA IS GOING GOLD STANDARD....IN EUROPE ONLY ITALIA COULD GO GOLD STARDARD YET BANKSTERS OF BRUSSELS WANT TO GET THIER HANDS ON IT...

SO, NAPOLEON INFUSED THE IDEA OF THE BIG JEWISH BANKERS TO BUY UP GREAT BRITAIN, TO EXPLOITE IMPERIAL INDIA WITH TAXES AND TO CONTROL INDUSTRIAL TRADE, TO OWN THE BRITISH FEUDAL ELITES, AND LATER INDUSTRIALIZE THE US AND BUY UP ITS COMPLETE ECONOMY. THE US IS THE SERVANT OF ISRAEL. .

I recognized some of those words!

The bank of England suspended convertibility of notes for gold during the wars and expanded it's balance sheet by 130 percent...you can't talk about France without talking about bloody England...

The frogs had the largest population in Europe at the time, the old monarchy was broke, Treasury looted, the private bankers flipped the empire via revolution, old debts wiped out and went on a conquest model, illegal draft, plundering, etc....the bank of England created new reserve money not tied to some shiny metal, controlled the seas and financed it's war machine....Europe has been run by finance for 300 years....and then the USA took over by industrial might by 1900....since the central bankers have dropped their cloak of disguise the past 25 years and showed us who they really are...money creators, balance sheet magic, inflation bubble blowers...

Bravo!!! Tres bien, actually magnifique!

Removing all the accounting rules ,laws and acts like Glass-Steagall ,Anti-Trust ETC. just mite have changed and sped up the time table for collapse,,,,,,,, primary entities buying and selling stock market indices, causing the stock market moves, are the individuals who control the economy,Blackrock ETC. including the Federal Reserve. These entities profit from market volatility and manipulate stock prices to maintain volatility, even when the country's economic situation might be stable. They invest when prices rise, causing them to go up further, and withdraw when prices fall, making the markets crash. Additionally, mainstream financial media is controlled to trigger rumors and crises at will, generating panic and bringing about crashes,get real coins NOW Constitutional gold and silver !

this would be much better with real images instead of AI. I'll continue to listen, but will not "like" the video while this persists

We haven't learned from the past.

Excellent dense historical commentary and a flawless narration style. Thank you!

Outstnading, clear communication when explaianing very difficult concepts.

Wishy-washy allegory, moralizing and platitudes - such handwaving is fake history.

Now I know what prompted the british to fight napoleon and indeed today with Russian fiscal prudence and oil
The borrower and printers of money have got their backs to the wall

great job

Well done sir. Look into solutionsoverproblems.

Interesting topic; but vehemently dislike the AI images

Great 👍🏿 video!

This was very informative.
