Ok navy maritime people who won the Battle of the Glorious First of June? Close for action!

However the outcome of the war was to see the restored Fernando VII try to reset the clock and forever lose Spain’s valuable American colonies

@TimeTravelTalks @Napoleonic_Imp @BodyCountPod @KaraDiDomizio @CraigBaird @lelahistory @jessicabmanor @Bookish_Rachael @WarrenDockter The French navy suffered as it had during the Revolution by the fact that large swathes of her Atlantic Coast were in rebellion against Napoleon, and under tight blockade. Her old strategy of ‘petit guerre à mer’ was compromised by Napoleon as it had been in 1798.

A formative time in European history that is sort of Tardis like, simple on the surface and bottomless and borderless when you step in.

@queenneytiri Would like to live and also want to be original, so I’m French but in the Mousquetairs de la Garde du Roi. So I’ll be outside a Palace in Ghent being fabulous.

Japan, Hawaii, Ancient Egypt & now South America ... it’s been fun travelling through history with @churchill_alex and @WW2girl1944
Where will #Historyland and @hack_history go next?

Here ends the thread. And perhaps you’ll agree that as it turns out the reputation of the Musketeers, popularised by Dumas, was actually well earned.

At Cassel in April 1677 the Musketeers dismounted and hacked their way through the Prince of Orange’s hitherto immovable infantry. Esprit de Corps by 1691 was such that at the siege of Mons they had to be restrained by threat of instant execution if any broke ranks to charge.

When the King went to war the camp of the Musketeers was always as close as possible, and in 1682 a permanent detachment was stationed at Versailles. Although famed for their rough and cavalier ways in peace, the Musketeers were quite well behaved when billeted on campaign.
