napoleon iii in france knew an opportunity when he saw one. in 1864, with the north and the south distracted by their war, napoleon sent 30,000 french troops to mexico to install this man, the arch duke ferdinand sorry, the arch duke maximilian of austria as the emperor of mexico. essentially asserted or puppet for napoleon the third. this was all done in a short order. maximilian became the emperor and france now had a very substantial hold in north america to find the monroe doctrine while the americans were otherwise engaged. blair's plan amounted to this. he would move that, his troops the army of northern virginia, to, quote, more defensive positions, close quote, to the southwest of richmond. abandon richmond, start moving southwest. grant would pursue lee with his forces in hot pursuit, as blair put it, although not so hot as to catch him. lee would have a two or three-day lead on grant, and the two armies would move southwest and keep moving southwest until lee crossed the rio grande and encountered these 30,000 french troops in mexico

parts of napoleon's armies came into russia. this is non negotiable for them and the level of violence in the eastern part of the country is actually part of russia's negotiating strategy. if they wanted to they could take that land like they took crimea. they could probably park into kiev in short order. this is part of a negotiation, making sure that ukraine remains in russia's sphere of influence. jenna: how do we prevent that? how do we prevent the russians from marching straight to kiev? >> we're already behind the power curve because this has been going on a long, long time. moscow sees washington as a patsy. we've been unwilling to arm the ukrainian resistance. the president is a lawyer and one of the things that all lawyers understand especially about international law is that countries have the inherent right to defend themselves. if ukraine asks for arms like they do in iraq, we have a right under u.n. law, international law, customary law to provide them with weapons and that's what we should have done a long time ago

it was easy to see, i think, the rise of napoleon at the end of the revolutionary period as proving burke right. burke budget simply right about france because in many ways the french revolution did succeed. it planted seeds that have not gone away and that even contemporary modern france very much looks to. but i do think that he was largely right about how that kind of radicalism would play out in the life of a natural society. paine was much more optimistic. he thought the principles were right, we're putting them into place, we're liberating the french public, and what will result is a working liberal society. this certainly seems not to have turned out that way, and paine saw that himself. he was in france for the entirety of the revolution. by the end of it, he was in prison. he was in prison because he was friendly with the less radical of the radical elements of the french regime, and he found himself imprisoned with a lot of his friends. he spent more time in prison than he had to because he'd made some enemies in america, so the more than ambassador morris, refused to take him o

look at napoleon. washington always said he'd resign when the war was over. people didn't believe him. he did resign whens it was over. when george iii said if that man resigns, he will be the greatest man in the world, and he did people knew that. jefferson wrote from france when it happened, he said this act is what sets our revolution apart. so people could trust washington with power because he chose to give it up freely. that was captured a bit in the newburg conspiracy. and so they trusted him with more power. that's probably why they gave the presidency as much power. no other country has really followed our route. other countries, they did follow being governments of the people. they tend to be parliamentary deck accurates with the prime minister running things -- democrats with the prime minister running things. madison thought that that would be helpful for preserving individual liberty. and what washington wanted the reason why he thought we needed a constitution was he felt what was a threat was individual liberty, private property rights in state

note deal with events with world war i world war i are a particular person such as a biography of napoleon or they deal with a particular subject such as the history of industrialization and they almost always deal with relatively narrow short timeframes and they limit themselves to studying developments in one town in one region, one country. of course there are exceptions. one only has to think of the great works of nathaniel bordanelle or eric hobsbawm or george tilly but by and large most historical research is framed in these particular ways. i don't disagree with framings as such. i think they are important to understand. "empire of cotton" breaks with these traditions and it tries radically different way to think about history mainly to look at history from a global perspective and at the same time to try to analyze one of the greatest issues of our contemporary moment, capitalism and in doing so by putting a physical thing cotton at the center of the story that it is telling. so what kind of book is "empire of cotton"? "empire of cotton" as its title suggests first and foremost the

it was napoleon who said once you start to take the ammo, take the ammo. -- once you start to take vienna take vienna. my question is, given the current circumstances, why isn't the greatest interest in america's national interest and foreign-policy interests and nato's interest to not play halfheartedly in ukraine but to put troops in those nato countries that the ambassadors say he is headed for so that they understand that there are red lines we are willing to draw. they are in the nato nations. unfortunately, ukraine will help them in it is important, it seems to me to not draw faint redlined -- red lines. >> is this a faint red line you are proposing? >> i don't think so. i think you can do both things. we are reinforcing nato states in the baltic region. that is regardless. the provision of weapons on the low end of the scale when you look at the entire range of weapons that could be provided i don't think that draws a red line. ukrainians are going to fight on whether we help them are not. i think it is a certain u.s. obligation to help, and i believe back against the russians now

as sherman's army advanced toward columbia, he was midway across the atlantic to meet with napoleon the third. even after richmond fell, jefferson davis refused to surrender. he took his government by rail and why can into the carolinas finally into georgia. the idea was that if britain or france was to intervene, there had to be a government they would recognize. even after lee'surrends surrender lincoln's assassination was intended to reignite the south's will to fight. generally hampton pleaded with jefferson davis, do not give up the fight. if you should propose to cross the mississippi, i can bring good men to escort you over. we can still make head against the enemy. so, they were going to join the french who were protecting maximilian and take a last stand in texas. davis responded by writing to his wife, saying he was heading to mexico. back to february 17, columbia was surrendered on this morning 150 years ago. until then, the confederate military had fought forces south of the city. they shelled their encampment the night before on the west bank of the broad river. they burned
