they couldn't really meet publicly under napoleon's regime. they had no had an idea for a monument to america to this friendship between france and the united states. he went back to 1778 and the commitment to liberty. out of that, one of the members at this dinner party, the artist from the group that later had the idea for what we now call the statue of liberty. it was liberty enlightening the world. it would take 20 years before they actually erected that in new york harbor but the idea was born in that summer of 1855. that statue is our work gratis civil war monument. not just for america, but, but for all the world because it is liberty enlightening the world. >> that statue, which most people are quite familiar with, don't know that at the feet of the statue of liberty live broken change representing emancipation. she is holding the declaration of independence, all men are created equal, lincoln's credo,'s credo, and holding up the lamp of enlightenment. >> that's right. >> and values and deliberately facing europe. >> and striving towar

imagine napoleon's tomb without napoleon. >> we're talking about the u.s. which is so much more than a mausoleum. it is always going to be a point of pilgrimage. other factors would have come into play. one thing that might have been different, there was originally a very large opening in the center of the rotunda. the plan was that you were going to look down, i guess there would have been some sort of fencing or something, a r ailing where you could look and see below. a statue, a tomb. visible from the rotunda that had to be filled in. there were all sorts of problems in terms of humidity and heat. beyond that, i am not sure. that is an interesting idea to speculate. >> i am a little bit curious about the placement of the bronze cast. was it the first of the bronze cast to go in? or did it go in as a group of cast? >> each state has two statues. there was a plaster cast. i think it is the houdon statue. if you could -- >> i thought about that as well. the other thing to consider, the thomas jefferson. how that gift was homeless for a while and had been o

in 1814 napoleon was defeated. so the british are like, hey, all the troops we had fighting the french, we could send them over to the united states and really clean their clock. so if the united states wanted for our terms what, we wanted out of the war, was to take over canada, and a guarantee that the british wouldn't mess with any american sailors or ships, what did the british want? well, the british wanted us to give up some western land. they didn't want to reclaim us as colonies. however they did want the michigan territory. or the illinois-indiana territories, which at that time also were part of wisconsin. so they thought, hey, if you give this up, we are letting you off easy. we are not asking for delaware. we are not asking for rhode island. we are not asking for maine -- massachusetts. that's western land the. the british wanted to give that like an indian buffer state. no, we are not going to do t the americans and british had peace negotiators over in belgium. why during the war of 1812 the british a

once the napoleonic wars ended, there were vast amounts of war material on hand throughout europe that was auctioned off in huge quantities. treaty obligations forbade great britain from sending any of this directly to spanish america. unlike the u.s., great britain had the ability to place their ports. nnot a lot went out. the american traders could sell this and then send it onto spanish america. british customs records revealed that the u.k. exported nearly one quarter of a million tons to the u.s. just in five years, 1815-1820. a huge, ultimately unknowable, but huge percentage of these must have gone towards the fight for spanish american independence in the early 1820's. whether through its own growing productive capacity or through re-exporting european weapons, the u.s. became the arms market in the hemisphere. but crucially, the u.s. never offers terms remotely as generous as those it had received from france in its own war for independence. no massive, easy loans from the government, no secret state programs to equip insurgent armies, and certainly, no declarations of war in

crucially, american diplomats also -- on salt export during the napoleonic wars. and this enabled manufacturers, like dupont, to make the u.s. significant in gunpowder manufacturing and exporting. finally, they committed themselves to the notion that they had a right to export or material anywhere in the world so long as they themselves were willing to take the risks. the new republic had lots of material at hand, continue to import and produce more of it, and its arms dealers were willing to take the risk of selling it abroad. cruciale material was in ways that historians have failed to a knowledge to the haitian revolution from its inception all the way through it's time and independence in 1804. on the eve of the uprising, the united states had about 500 ships involved in the trade. this island was second only to great britain in terms of its importance to american trade. and as shocking as the uprising was to most white americans, the commercial opportunities involve their were plain to see. -- there were plain to see. philadelphia's federal gazette reported a

napoleon really takes yoeurope f of america. without napoleon it would have done differently as far as who was interested in north america. the louisiana purchase is a strange thing because it leapfrogs over what i am talking about and had new orleans and the southwest without florida in between. spain at the end of the revolution, what spain thought it wants in the american revolution, not only everything west of the mississippi but everything between the mississippi river and the appalachians from the panhandle of florida to the coast of florida up to the great lakes. some of these lands our lands the british and french fought over in the french and indian war, pontiac and a british thought about, and the american revolution, the desire for that land, british keeping settlers off the land, it is unlikely that would have saved part of the spanish empire but the spanish and particularly indians were not foolish in thinking that they would continue to be powers on the continent. you have what actually happened on your side. anybo

he became mayor under napoleon and was honored with a military order. he received an honor and retired the same year. he died in paris in 1837. his journal covers the period from november 1783 the start of the yorktown siege. though he begins his narrative in connecticut, he would have been and can't -- and camped -- encamped in newport. he took advantage of his year-long interval before the march 2 yorktown. "from january 15 1781 until may 25 when i arrived in lebanon, connecticut, i wasn't a single week in one place. i crossed new england, the continent, new york, the jerseys, pennsylvania, maryland, and virginia." he rejoined the army at the end of june. at the moment, it was not clear where the army was headed. he says "the entire army was ignorant of the mission. some said we were going to cross the north river, reaching the jerseys and then south to capture staten island." as the army passed through new jersey, it became clear the goal is yorktown. he described the route where they traveled by sea to annapolis after pennsylvania. in his journal, t

supposed to be the louisiana purchase, it was initially to get the port of new orleans, but then napoleon offered louisiana because he had to pull back resources in the larger war in europe and the revolution in haiti. also it had not been productive for him as he had hoped, so they offered all of louisiana and monroe was part of making those arrangements. that is probably the most famous part of his time in europe. he also negotiated a treaty with the british. the british signed, the americans never did. that treaty could have prevented the war of 1812. >> many people forget that there was a rivalry between the u.s. and france during this time. can you explain? cassandra good: it was a three-way rivalry, spain has fallen in importance, but the spanish and french and americans are fighting over who will control shipping to each other and the colonies, especially with the armies. so the u.s. could have easily gone to war with france as well. the french were seizing american ships as the british had been, but the french did not have the level of naval power that the u.s. did. >> go back to

vago: i want to quote one of the greatest generals in historya frenchman called napoleon, who said amateurs talk tactics, professionals tallogistics. there are two challenges. one is the investment in logistics. i want you to talk about the itical importance of logistics and whetheher or not that is one of the biggest needs where nations need to invest resources. in.alomeros: logogistics nato have been considered as a nation responsibility in many ways. the more we grow io a multinational a approach, multinational operations,s, the momore we see the need for grear synergy. this is first and foremost. the need to reinvest in logistics. logistics have been affected past,we saw in the recent reduction in the serviceability of equipment, systems. we stressed logiic lines. now we have to regain marching for maneuvers because we are facing operations of distance. we must sustain this operation. we see any single crisis, we must face a single crisis is a long crisis to we must prepare ourselves. it happens now in the south. everybody is recognizing the need to be able to endure and last to be effe

the papacy's political enemies have also been targeted: napoleon and communists, for instance; and even the whole of venice in the middle ages. when you are excommunicated, you are not allowed to take communion and the holy sacraments of marriage and church burial can be denied. you are on your way to hell, and the only way to avoid damnation is to repent and seek absolution from your bishop. >> giacomo galeazzi is what they call in italy, a vaticanista, a vatican watcher. he was there when pope francis made his homily. it was clear to him that pope francis was not just talking to mafiosi but also to priests. >> i realized that the priests in attendance were rather disconcerted, because they were afraid this would divide their communities. from now on, no priest, no bishop can say, "i didn't know". churchmen will no longer be able to muddle through in a grey area where they can turn a blind eye to where the money in the collection plate is coming from. that's the kind of thing that happens in many "souths" around the world: not just in southern italy, but also in the south america of th

we had a consent decree sheriff napoleon will remember it for over ten years.ice departments that do not comply, and i mean on a daily level, they get a lot of money from the justice department. that money from the justice department, i mean, for everything from jackets to whatever else that money should not go to them when there is a problem. i don't mean after a consent decree. i mean when they apply for it. when they apply for the multijurisdictional task force. we just had a guy killed in detroit by i.c.e. and they spent 113 days before the information was released. no transparency. ice, many of the other agencies involved in that said this young man had a weapon. i don't know whether he did or not. the prosecutor didn't go forward with it. but nonetheless, 113 days family members who saw the shooting had to wait before they could get any information. so essentially that money -- sheriff i know some of them are decent. some of them are not. the money should be with him until such time as there's some clarity about shootings, confrontations, and so on. final

napoleon being a good example of that. when he gave up power and went back to mount vernon, king george the third said that if that is true, he is the greatest man on the face of the earth. it is so unusual for a winning general to give up power and not run something, but washington did that. and he did that with the president. he could have stayed in third term, he could've stayed forever. he chose not to do that. he chose to go back to mount vernon and go vote power you'd -- and give up power. susan: if you could be a scholar and your own library studying some aspect of george washington, what would it be? david: i think the years between the time that he give up the revolutionary war leadership and became president, those are very interesting times. he didn't want to preside over the constitutional convention, but he did a spectacular job. in effect helping the country while he wasn't in office. susan: we go down this data bit, -- go down the state of that, what are you doing with that one? david: when i to a monticello

julius caesar doesn't do it, albert cromwell doesn't do it, napoleon doesn't do it, stalin doesn't do it, mallory doesn't do it, castro doesn't still hasn't done it. the only one who has done it was the south african leader, he walked away. washington walked away. most important act of power he ever committed was to surrender power. he did it after the revolutionary war, surprised everybody by turning in his sport in mount vernon and after he was present after two terms he could have served a third term or life, just to terms to go back. >> host: the premise of your book. we have a revolutionary war, 1776, finally win the war 1783, treaty of paris, everyone goes back to their respective states. did the people who were then operating under the articles of confederation expects to be one country or 13 separate countries? explain the articles of confederation. when did that come about? >> guest: the 1780s is a kind of dead sound, somehow we declare independence in 76 and win this war which is a big deal against the greatest army/navy in the world and then after awhile there is this inter

think about the revolutions that ended with a leader becoming a dictator at some sort, napoleÓn, thinkof all them around the world today and what makes america different when a part of it is willingness to go back to private life, live on great men, great people who set the tone that is continued to live. that's one of the reasons today because south africa is different, mandela set a tone. it wasn't just washington. it was a team of people. but he pulled out the glasses and read said, going blind in service, and because i've been reading too many archival notes. watching the sunrise slowly over the river, the west facing door on his first floor office stood directly behind me. washington would have seen much the same view 225 years earlier knowing it might be a long time before he observed it again. the american people had called him and he was prepare to go -- preparing to leave beloved plantation in april 1789. this vista the one that washington loved survived unchanged in the mist of when you urban virginia. i was able to enjoy this and other scenes on washington's plantation many

revolutions that ended with the leader becoming a dictator of some sort of whether it be cromwell or napoleon later or think of them all around the world today and what makes different? well part of it is the willingness to go back to private life, and not hold on to power, and it's amazing how we as a people can live on the fumes as it were of our founding fathers. live on -- live on great men, great people who set the tone that is continued to live. ting that's one of the reasons in africa today why south africa is different. because the mandela set a tonal like washington set a tone here. it wasn't just washington. it was a team of people. it was certainly a band of brothers washington that's washington's phrase. but he pulled out glasses and read and said i had blind in service and not only gone blind in the service of history because i've been reading too many archive l notes but it begins, preface begins on a chilly spring morning in april of 2014 as i sat own mount vernon plaza watching the sun rise slowly over the potomac river. the window off george washington's upstairs bedroom was

war ii and the sense of immediacy of what happens when you could probably go back to the stars and napoleon. so when you look at nato and the claims articulation of nato enlargement and the sense of feeling pushed and what that means should it move to the art tick in the context of russia's utilization of international law to state and make its claims and offense as you pointed out 20% of economic development and a significant amount of forward vision in terms of economics and development in that area might there be a rethink in terms of our policy of how we might want to utilize nato or not utilize nato was not part of the world and might not come a diminishment of that lead to a greater degree of trust on both sides and therefore capacity to communicate with there might not be because why do you want to communicate with somebody pushing in a military sense if you see it that way as a matter of perception. second part of the environmental protection and what comes first. environmental protection or development which has been a question since the industrial revolution. if you've been to nor
