Napoleon Wasn’t Short — The Truth Behind the Myth #HistoryFacts #Shorts

Spoiler: Napoleon wasn’t short.
At 5’6” in French inches (about 5’7” in modern feet), he was average height for a man in the 1800s.

So why do we all think he was tiny?
Enter: British propaganda.

Cartoons mocked him as a tiny tyrant, and the nickname stuck — along with the “Napoleon Complex.”
But the real shortness? That was the truth in British satire.

He wasn’t short… just surrounded by tall lies.
