Enough to write a vast symphonic work, to inspire a magnificent novel and bring down a great emperor. On this day of battle more russians died than were killed or would die of illness in the whole of the war of 1812 on all sides. This really was a titanic clash of two emporers and two vast armies numbering close on 200,000 men each. The war of 1812 would not be fought by armies of 200,000 men.

Napoleon protected france from the economic war by asset stripping all of the conquered territories. First country to rebel would be russia, napoleons only serious ally, and a Major Trading nation with a big export trade geared towards supplying the british market. Inside the continental system from 1807 to 1811 russia saw their economy collapse. Being part of napoleons team was very bad for your business. In 1811 the ...
