Jack of Harts

After the French Revolution, the man known simply as Napoleon rose to power and conquered Western Europe.  My family organized coalitions of the most powerful nations of the time to fight France, but coalition after coalition failed to do the job.  America even joined the Napoleonic Wars for a short time, but Britain was the most industrialized and richest nation in the entire world.  She could afford to lose a war, or even five.  France had to win every one.
