NAPOLEON BITES THE DUST
The Napoleonic army was defeated yesterday in a battle that took place near the city of Waterloo.
Yesterday a brutal armed confrontation took place between the French imperial army of Napoleon Bonaparte and the Seventh Coalition.
As you know, Napoleon has tried to conquer territories all over the continent, and because of those imminent wars and conquests, Great Britain, Sweden, Holland, Prussia, Russia, Spain and Germany, decided to create the Seventh Coalition in order to defeat him. Although Napoleon Bonaparte had the support of officers and soldiers loyal to the French imperial army, he could not avoid the union of the allied armies. Now, Napoleon is expected to be exiled to the island of Santa Elena and, as it has happened on similar cases during History, probably the Napoleonic Empire will come to an end and the French monarchy will be restored, as it was defeated by Napoleon. According to that, we suppose that all the territories conquered by Bonaparte all over Europe, will be part again of the country they belonged to initially.
For you to understand better how this battle went by, we interviewed one of the survivors of the battle. He has told us his version: "Firstly, we were summoned by Arthur Wellesley at 09:30 in the morning in the Mont-Saint-Pont. Our compatriots came very scared since they had faced the Napoleonic Army in the village of Quatre Bras, in addition, they have been persecuted by them the day before. Around 11:30 a.m., when we were all together, the battle started. From then onwards everything became very bloody and bleak." And he added in tears: "It was horrible to see my mates losing their lifes one by one and I went down in the dumps."
On our part, we will keep you informed about the events referent to the battle and its consequences.

DeleteI have always liked the videos, but what has caught my attention the most has been that they have interviewed someone. Especially the last paragraph of the interview when it says "add crying". I found all that very original. And I also liked the way to end by saying that they will be informed little by little.

This is a really good news, the amount of information is huge and the text is well structured even if it’s that big. By the way, the two videos linked are amazing, they first one’s got a great quality and the second is short but perfectly explained.
