Jews controlled Britain during the Hundred Years' War?

Intra-racial petty nationalism, not even once.

But Britain has been fomenting petty nationalism all over Europe for literally centuries. Napoleon was the pan-Europeanist, not Britain.

Since Cromwell and the formation of the empire ye

Yup, because Britain = jews. Just like America = jews. Blaming English or American people for this is what is retarded. As if we have some actual democracy where the will of the people is enacted or something... lol at that idea.

I never did that though. I blamed their elites, and no, centuries ago most of them weren't Jews. That's just coping.

Since when has jewish control meant jews are a majority of people in power? All it takes is for the empire to be serving international finance which it was.

As much as I admire Napoleon's genius, he was a liberal. In the grand historical scheme of things, I think Metternich played a much more constructive role.

I just have to disagree. I don't see how he was a liberal. He was certainly progressive -- in the good sense -- but liberal? I don't like reactionaries like Metternich.

He was a great proponent of egalitarianism and his conquests resulted in the spread of liberal systems like the Napoleonic code and a lot of wealth and power redistribution. If he had been successful, both the Prussians and the Russians, who were the most active rightist elements in the 19th and 20th centuries, would have lost their special qualities. It is very difficult to imagine any possible non-leftist, anti-bourgeois reaction in the event of a Napoleonic victory.

non-leftist, anti-bourgeois reaction

I regard Bonapartism as one of those to be honest.

If you are referring to the Bonapartism of Napoleon I, I am not sure what it could have been a reaction against. Liberalism had a foothold only in France, where monarchy was the traditional form of government. Napoleon's system was something like an attempt at reconciling the two.

The chaos of the French Revolution.

Exactly. It was an attempt at synthesis, much like fascism was.
