your majesty received a letter of peace

if I may be honest, of course. Austria's
coalition with England is in such a
strong position against France that
these peace overs are clearly only for
your handling of French public opinion.
Oh, my friend,

>> Yes, it is true. It is public opinion
Napoleon is after. But my warning to you
is that he's as hungry for it as any man

suggestion with respect would be to take
this little offering of peace from him

bent on peace at any cost.

Emperor,
it is my honor and my duty, of course,
to do as you require of me. But if

And painful though it is, the truth is
that the Empress is no longer capable of
bearing you a child.

However, I have lost hope of having
children from my marriage to my beloved

dissolution of years of my life.
You have embellished my life for 15
years.

She has been deprived

There is a way for you to call me
brother.
Last night at dinner, I was
charmed by your sister.
Is she spoken for?
>> Sadly, yes. She's to be married to the
Duke of Oldenberg, I'm afraid.
>> What of her younger sister, Anna?
>> Is there a formal offer for Anna?
Uh well, you see Anna, she's 15 years
old.
That is a detail.
Our friendship
is built on our mutual distrust of
England. When we hold to the continental
blockade, we choke them from the trade
and we fight for our most sacred rights.
That is what is important between us. I
just had a thought. Huh?
>> No. Say it.

He's decided to open his ports to
England while taxing the French.
I must wipe away my melancholy and begin

Oh,

Napoleon Bonapart has destroyed the only
title upon which his very existence
depended.
This congregation of allies shall form
along the borders of France and Belgium
an army.
70,000 troops from England
120,000 troops from Prussia.
This vermin has routed the farmyards of
Europe while the farmers snored.
We should have struck this blow long
ago.
He has held the world hostage with his
egotism, his insatiable hunger for
power, and his lack of simple good
manners.
We will all sleep again without him.
I believe I speak for all of us when I
say that the only regret we all share is
that we allowed this vermin to live at
all.
250,000 men with the traitor,
25,000 men,
125,000 men, and 100,000 men
against our 125,000 men.
This is a fight on land.
This is what Britain does not know how
to do that I know.
Strike quickly against Wellington and
Bla.
Defeat them separately.
Disallow them from uniting forces here.

Now I know why you have such a
successful navy.
Thank you.
Have you ever visited the English
countryside? Imagine I love the
Cotswalts.
Soft rolling hills,
gentle light.
And my dear sir, it is only by a narrow
margin of opinion that you have been
spared the fate of being shot.
Politically, I'm afraid it's impossible
for the British government to allow you
to stay in England.
You have permitted three officers and 12
servants to accompany you into exile.
Exile will be contained to the island of
St. Helena under the watchful eye of
Governor Hudson Low and his family.
Helena,
it's a small island.
More of a rock really.
A thousand miles from the mainland of
Africa. Told it's very pretty, tranquil.
You'll have time to reflect.
Your correspondence will be monitored,
your presence verified twice daily by
the orderly officer.
[music]
Change the trail.
[singing]
What will you do now?
>> I hate to see you alone.
>> Will you come to me?
>> Will I forgive you,
my sweet, stubborn emperor?
I let you loose and let you come to
ruin.
Next time I will be emperor and you will
do as I say.
Well,
you are right.
Every night I beg to see you in my
dreams.
And when I do, you turn me away.
Girls, what's the capital of France?
>> Paris.
>> Russia.
Petersburg and Moscow before
>> Moscow.
And who burnt Moscow to the ground?
>> I don't know, sir.
>> I did.
>> I believe, sir. The Russians burnt it to
get rid of the French.
>> Who told you that?
>> It's common knowledge, sir.
Go.
Bye-bye.
>> I'm gone.
>> Can I tell you what I have waiting for
you?
>> It is a secret
and I will show you when you arrive.
Come to me, Napoleon.
Let's try this again.
