Talk:No Napoleon

I was considering this idea as well - this is what I came up with:

The Revolution in France would continue in some form and various of the military and naval leaders of OTL would achieve prominence or at least be notable at the time rather than historically significant.

The Holy Roman Empire would probably persist as a concept - but the German states would not be united to the limited extent that they were by Napoleon: likewise Italy and the Papal States.

The treasures co-opted by Napoleon and his troops OTL mostly stay where they are, leading to a different artistic development. The decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphics is much delayed, as the Rosetta Stone is not 'discovered' by the West until much later.

As the French Revolution runs out of steam there will may the equivalent of OTL Congress of Vienna, resolving matters - but leading to a diffferent map of Europe to the one we know. Jackiespeel 20:47, August 3, 2011 (UTC)
