In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore Napoleon's astonishing return from exile in 1815—the Hundred Days that culminated in Waterloo. They trace his landing at Golfe-Juan with just a thousand men, the nail-biting march through Grenoble and Lyon where loyal troops defected en masse, and the desperate gamble of raising a new army against the Seventh Coalition. Along the way, they examine the Fédérés, the Champ de Mai ceremony, and the crucial decision to attack the Prussians first. With Napoleon's health failing and Wellington's troops dug in at Mont-Saint-Jean, the Battle of Waterloo became Europe's final verdict. The episode ends with Napoleon's second abdication and the closing of an era. #HundredDays #Napoleon #Waterloo #GolfeJuan #Grenoble #ChampDeMai #Fédérés #SeventhCoalition #Wellington #Blücher #MontSaintJean #1815 #BattleOfWaterloo #JoachimMurat #NeapolitanWar #FexingoHistory #NapoleonicWars #History Fexingo founder and producer: Ibnul Jaif Farabi Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
