French historians outraged by Ridley Scott portraying Napoleon as a tyrant be like...
Tumblr media
Actual people who were military conquered by Napoleon, had a foreign ruler installing a random relative who knew nothing of the territory, installed a level of bureaucracy it's still hard to get rid of still today, destroyed monuments and infrastructures, stole artworks be like:
Tumblr media
Tell me again: which European country was the one so feudal and with rules so strict and rulers so shitty that the people actually rioted and started a terror period?
You can have all the opinions you want about that movie and Ridley Scott's historical movies, but if your argument reaches defending Napoleon, maybe you should stop talking and read some books written in countries that were actually conquered by Napoleon.

Saint Stephen succeeded his father, Prince Bogdan II, as Prince of Moldavia on April 12, 1457 soon after the latter was murdered. He defended his country against the Turks, and he also built many churches and monasteries. (Painted Churches of Bukovina)
Saint Stephen the Great was a spiritual son of Saint Daniel the Hesychast (December 18), who told him that if he built a church after every battle he would be victorious in all his wars. Following Saint Daniel’s counsel, Saint Stephen won forty-seven battles and built forty-eight churches or monasteries. He also built the Putna Dormition Monastery in northern Moldavia in 1466 when Saint Daniel urged him to do so.
In 1476, Saint Stephen lost the battle of Razboieni to the Turks. He went to visit Saint Daniel at the Voronets Monastery to ask whether or not he should surrender the country to the Moslems. Saint Daniel told him not to surrender, because he would soon win a decisive victory. Saint Daniel also told him that after he had saved the nation, Stephen should build a monastery in honor of Saint George at that place. Having faith in Saint Daniel’s prophecy, Stephen went forth with his army and drove the Turks from the country.
Saint Stephen fell asleep in the Lord on July 2, 1504, and was buried at the Putna Monastery. He was glorified by the Orthodox Church of Romania in 1992.

Mircea the Elder in Numismatics and Medalistics
“Mircea the Elder (1386 – 1418) was the son of Radu I and ruler of Wallachia. He was also known in history as Mircea the Great and succeeded to secure for the province of Wallachia its largest territorial span, as well as its highest geopolitical status ever.
1402 would bring important changes in relations with the Ottoman Empire. The defeat and capture of Bayezid I by the Mongols under Tamerlane opened a path for power struggles and political infighting within the Ottoman Empire. The confrontation between the sons of Bayezid I was carefully speculated upon by Voivode Mircea, who at first supported Musa against Emir Süleyman, with an aim towards weakening Ottoman power. Musa was initially defeated and took refuge in Wallachia, yet with the help of Mircea he succeeded in occupying Adrianople, the capital of the Ottoman State at the time, and became Sultan. It was during this period that Wallachia reached its greatest territorial breadth, as documented by a chronicle of 1406 in which the voivode claims that “by virtue of Christ the Lord, as a good believer and a good worshipper, lover of Christ and autocrat, Io[an] Mircea, great voivode and ruler at the mercy of God and by the gift of God, warding and ruling over the entire country of Hungary-Wallachia and over lands beyond the mountains, as well as over the Tatar lands, over Amlaş and Hertzeg Făgăraş, ruler over Banat Severin and both parts of Podunavia, up to the Great Sea and warden of the city of Darstor, do {…}”.
After 1397 (or 1402, according to some) Mircea initiated a monetary reform, whereby the gross weight and silver content of the ducats were increased. New elements in terms of iconography were introduced, consisting in representations of the voivode and of Jesus Christ, testifying to the important role of Mircea on the Balkan political scene, as well as to his capacity as defender of Christendom.
The first series of ducats depict a crowned Mircea the Elder standing and holding a vertical or inclined spear in his right hand, and the cross-bearing orb in his left hand. On the reverse there is an inclined shield with a helmet and the eagle of Wallachia on top. The second series of silver ducats in circulation after the reform of the monetary system feature a benediction by Jesus Christ on one side and on the other, Mircea holding a spear in his right hand and the cross-bearing globe in the left.
Mircea is depicted on some of the ducats wearing a Byzantine costume, while on others he is shown as a western knight. The currency of Wallachia did not only fulfil an economic function, but it was also a means of propaganda, with the voivode shown as per written documents “a sovereign voivode and sole ruler”. After the reform, the “ban” was reintroduced, a subdivision with an aim to ensure the needed amount of change money (coins). This currency was non-epigraphic and depicted a cross with arms of equal length on the obverse, and an inclined shield with the Wallachian eagle on top, on the reverse.
The second part of the reign of Mircea the Elder saw the minting of a series of coins that have given rise to a number of controversies among specialists, with some attributing them to the mint of the city of Severin. On the obverse they presented the effigy of the voivode and his name in Slavonic, and on the reverse a shield with the Wallachian eagle and an inscription in Latin, featuring the name of Petru or Petrusian. The mysterious character is not mentioned in chronicles as an associate to the throne, and there has been an ongoing debate about his origins, as well as with regard to the actual location where these coins were minted.”
