To be historically accurate, Nappy was eventually defeated by an alliance led by the...........British.

Ah but the useage of the word British and Britain is a modern affectation. Wheras England and the English was used far more commonly to describe the Britain and the British. The celtic fringe was largely ignored both domestically and on the international stage.

Not sure he can hear you any more. Its probably OK if you stop now.

Besides the British army which defeated Nappy consisted of English, Irish, Scots and one Welshman. From the reports the Welshman was so powerful, he was the 1815 equivalent of Chuck Norris on steroids.
Name? George North (of course).

No.... haunt the dead as much as they haunt us, I say. Democracy and all that Wink

But back to the actual thread rather than the history - yes, PSA does resemble Napoleon, although I suspect maybe he's looking for that effect with his high collar ensemble and the naature of his Heroic Role as Savioure of zee French pride.
