"So glad America never had an aristocracy"
Many of the founding fathers were landed gentry that utilized slave labor you fucking moron. Planters were famously Francophiles too!
Thomas Jefferson's grandson, George W. Randolph, would later go on to fight for the Confederacy

“If France calls on me”
This is the problem with the leftover “monarchs” in the modern era — they all act like Aragorn who was reserved in his ascension to the throne so as to prove himself and win the people over. The people of Gondor had the Stewards and were already used to being ruled by a monarch.
Instead we live in an age that has been stripped of kings and would require assertiveness and action to regain that kind of love, devotion, and submission.
Heir Bourbon should be acting more like Napoleon if he wants to “save” France.
“The situation has never been so serious; the Fifth Republic is on the verge of collapse. My family has served France for centuries, and if France calls upon me, I will be at its service. The indispensable condition is that France desires the return of the monarchy - a monarchy above parties, unifying.”
- Luís de Bourbon, direct descendant of Saint Louis IX

In 1806, after defeating Prussia, Napoleon visited the palace of Frederick the Great, a king he had admired since childhood. Standing before Frederick’s tomb, he reportedly removed his hat and said, “Gentlemen, if he were alive, I would not be here.” to his marshalls
And On his final exile at St Helena, when he was asked why didn't he take Frederick the Great's sword when he had visited Sans Souci, he replied,'Because I had my own.'

‘Good and upstanding people must be persuaded with gentle means.
The rabble must be moved by terror.’

"If you treat the mob with kindness, these creatures fancy themselves invulnerable; if you hang a few, they get tired of the game, and become as submissive and humble as they ought to be."
- Napoleon Bonaparte
Napoleon was whatever enabled him to pursue his grand historical project. Even his own empire was but a means to this end
That's why he was a badass. There's an ancient quality to his character, even has he weaponized the tools of modernity to unleash his will on the world
