The Emperor is dead! Long Live the Emperor!

Post by Friedrich August I. » Sun May 05, 2013 4:46 am

Today, 192 Years ago, the worlds greatest Military Genius died.

The Duke of Wellington, when asked who was the greatest general of the day, answered: "In this age, in past ages, in any age, Napoleon."
„Macht Euch Euren Dregg alleene“

"Sort your filth out by yourself!" The King of Saxony Friedrich August III., at his abdication 1918, referred to the quarrels in the parliament and the squabbling within the provisional government.
