Spring of 1798: Napoleon sets out with 38,000 men and 10,000 sailors to conquer Egypt. He also brought along 167 men of science and arts to start a scientific mission to explore the land. It is the beginning of a scholarly encounter between the West and the Muslim world.

0:54 ….is that a face mask…27:22 they retain the soldier as he knows a little Arabic…"ask him where he got this" soldier asks him in English and the peasant understood 😆
I guess Graham Hancock made him disappear?…
Not one word about the great black general Thomas-Alexandre Dumas.
Very well done. Theres hardly any video documenataries out there that describe Napoleon's Egyptian Campaign in such detail.
Mmmmm I was told it was it was to cold. And sand got into his eyes.
One thing we humans are good at is killing other humans
Ain’t no party like a S club party
The 3rd world people who inhabit Egypt today are not linked by dna to those who built the first world civilization. You can see the effects of multiculturalism and diversity when looking at what has taken place in Egypt today.
In one word; logistics.
TIMELINE SOME OF THE VIDEOS THE BACK GROUND MUSIC IS WAY TOO LOUD CAN NOT CANNOT HEAR THE PERSON TALKING. THIS ONE IS O.K.
This is for people who passively watch and think they’re getting real history….but it’s not. In fact, if you’ve not read anything about Napoleon and his time, you won’t even know what the makers of “documentaries” decide to distort to increase dramatic value, or the vast amount of information that’s left out, or the stuff that’s just WRONG (Napoleon knowing what an atom is??? No way!). R E A D !!!
I've only recently begun to dig into Napoleonic history, but I already knew some of his Egyptian experience. Unfortunately I completely bypassed and neglected the scholars that went with him. For everything they did, I focused too much on Napoleon's military campaign. Not asking for a separate video, but if I could know the name of these men's writings, I would be appreciative.
I've read books and watched Documentaries on Egypt, on this channel to, but would like to hear how these men saw the sights and made their own observations.
Also, again, the beautiful 3d military scenes and actors are fantastic, grand work!
Napoleon took Egypt. He just couldn't hold it after Nelson destroyed his fleet. In fact British would never have taken Egypt if Napoleon didn't conquer it first.
this series has been lit lowkey.
I love this series. I cannot get over the fact Napoleon used the atom as a reference in conversation, though; about 30 years too early to Dalton’s discovery.
Everyone needs to see the quest for Egypt napoleon obsession on YouTube
He failed when he lost his entire naval fleet and was left stranded in Egypt
This was so good I had to watch it again
the graphics are so good
This was amazing
when have a wmd like a plague // Q – time own but send the infected toward the enemies' lines allow the men to die in battle over the uselessness of slowness and at the same time the wmd might do what it did to more than one leader over time
more than once prisoners infected, taken to the capitol, to meet higher ups, usually leads to them upps beings dead and a win by wmd //
butq-time one's own personnel // masks ON duh!
NEVER NEVER HEARD NAPOLEAN WAS SLOVINIAN!!!!!! He was from a most Italian family.
Haschis drug
Because Napoleon was ethnically Slovenian-Serb, they immigrated to Corsican during the days of Croatian Empire. If he was Croatian he would have conquered all of Africa and sent Serbs and Cigans to live there to ride tractors. Wellington was Albanian.
A funny thing happened on the road to Syria 🇸🇾
That was well made. I enjoyed the acting, and didn’t know much about the campaign, until now. Thank you.
Actor portraying Napoleon looks kinda wimpy and feminine. Is there any evidence that Napoleon was a weeny?
Ahh history always a bitter sweet conclusion
Mo Salah…that's why.
The Rosetta stone
Failed to take Russia Spain and many more. Great success and failure
Because of the Royal Navy. Every person who went to school at least to age11 knows this.
