| The Napoleonic Wars (1803–1815) were a series of major conflicts pitting the French Empire and its allies, led by Napoleon I, against a fluctuating array of European powers formed into various coalitions, primarily led and financed by the United Kingdom. The wars resulted from the unresolved disputes associated with the French Revolution and the Revolutionary Wars, which had raged on for years before concluding with the Treaty of Amiens in 1802. The resumption of hostilities the following year paved the way for more than a decade of constant warfare often categorized into five conflicts: the War of the Third Coalition (1805), the War of the Fourth Coalition (1806–7), the War of the Fifth Coalition (1809), the War of the Sixth Coalition (1813), and the War of the Seventh Coalition (1815). The Napoleonic Wars had profound consequences for global and European history, leading to the spread of nationalism and liberalism, the rise of the British Empire as the world's premier power, the independence movements in Latin America and the collapse of the Spanish Empire, the fundamental reorganization of German and Italian territories into larger states, and the establishment of radically new methods in warfare. Napoleon became the First Consul of France in 1799, then Emperor five years later. Inheriting the political and military struggles of the Revolution, he created a state with stable finances, a strong central bureaucracy, and a well-trained army. The British frequently financed the European coalitions intended to thwart French ambitions. By 1805, they had managed to convince the Austrians and the Russians to wage another war against France. In response, Napoleon rapidly marched the Grand Army into the heart of Central Europe, demolishing the isolated Austrian forces during the Ulm Campaign before scoring a historic victory against the Allies at the Battle of Austerlitz in December 1805. At sea, the Royal Navy destroyed a combined Franco-Spanish fleet at Trafalgar in October 1805, securing British control of the seas for the remainder of the wars. Prussian worries about increasing French power led to the formation of the Fourth Coalition in 1806. The French quickly defeated the Prussians at the battles of Jena and Auerstedt, then Napoleon marched the Grand Army deep into Eastern Europe and annihilated the Russians in June 1807 at the Battle of Friedland. | (https://i.imgur.com/3BsOuaL.png) |
(https://i.imgur.com/ogdSc1p.png) | The 44e Régiment d'Infanterie is an infantry regiment of the French Army created during the Revolution from the regiment of Orleans, a French regiment of the Ancient Régiment created in 1642 under the name of the regiment Mazarin-Italian. Nicknamed the "Ace of Spades" during the war of 1914-1918. Hoping to extend the Continental System and choke off British trade with the European mainland, Napoleon invaded Iberia and declared his brother Joseph the King of Spain in 1808. The Spanish and the Portuguese revolted with British support. The Peninsular War lasted six years, featured extensive guerrilla warfare, and ended in victory for the Allies. The Continental System caused recurring diplomatic conflicts between France and its client states, especially Russia. Unwilling to bear the economic consequences of reduced trade, the Russians routinely violated the Continental System and enticed Napoleon into another war. The French launched a major invasion of Russia in the summer of 1812. The resulting campaign witnessed the collapse and retreat of the Grand Army along with the widespread destruction of Russian lands and cities. In 1813, Prussia and Austria joined Russian forces in a Sixth Coalition against France. A lengthy military campaign culminated in a large Allied army defeating Napoleon at the Battle of Leipzig in October 1813. The Allies then invaded France and captured Paris in the spring of 1814, forcing Napoleon to abdicate in April. He was exiled to the island of Elba near Rome and the Bourbons were restored to power. However, Napoleon escaped from Elba in February 1815 and took control of France once again. The Allies responded by forming a Seventh Coalition, which defeated Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo in June. The Congress of Vienna, which started in 1814 and concluded in 1815, established the new borders of Europe and laid out the terms and conditions that ended the wars. Napoleon seized power in 1799, creating a de facto military dictatorship. There are a number of opinions on the date to use as the formal beginning of the Napoleonic Wars; 18 May 1803 is often used, when Britain and France ended the only short period of peace between 1792 and 1814. The Napoleonic Wars began with the War of the Third Coalition, which was the first of the Coalition Wars against the First French Republic after Napoleon's accession as leader of France. Britain ended the Treaty of Amiens and declared war on France in May 1803. |
| The 44e Régiment d'Infanterie was formed by old and new players of the community, as a small number of members in April 2017. They, being veterans of other Napoleonic War regiments, we wanted to create an atmosphere of respect, fun, and entertainment while playing NW. We achieve this by focusing on using excessive teamwork and tactics while playing the game. Our prime goals are to provide that same sense of comradery in and out of NW and into our other games we play. Our rank structure promotes a meaningful, but not overdone, organisation and couples with our focus on using historical line tactics and commands. We brag over many years of enjoyment and experience, and over this time, the regiment is anything but average. We are consistently welcoming new players and focus on bringing players in that mesh with our attitudes and ideals. Many of those members have stayed and remain here to this day. Rank advancement is possible, we have no set limit for any ranks, and take those that can showcase their capabilities in and out of game, and have shown dedication to the regiment over time. We respect and ask that all new members respect everyone in this community, and we endeavour to achieve this goal daily. In addition to our consistency in Napoleonic Wars, we play a wide variety of games and encourage members to play together. We have members that turn up multiple times zones, so in the event, you’re staying up late, we are certain that you will have someone to play with! Our current list of games changes consistently, so if you are even remotely interested in playing with us, whether you are a veteran of Napoleonic Wars or a beginner, no matter the age, you are welcome to join us, just add one of the following recruitment liaisons on Steam. See you on the battlefield! | (https://i.imgur.com/e0zRWQn.png) |
(https://i.imgur.com/6jOQ0NU.png) | Our aim in Napoleonic Wars The 44e will mainly focus on participating in weekly-based linebattles and sieges. The regiment will mainly focus on improving their shooting and melee to compete in future 1v1s and 2v2s against other regiments, trainings will also be set throughout the week to get our members to their peak performance in the game. On the other hand, we will be jumping onto public servers to have a laugh and to enjoy ourselves, other than that we will not only go as line infantry but also role-play as other units such as light infantry or artillery. Our accomplish in Napoleonic Wars is to become a fun and non-serious regiment to keep the entertainment at its highest point. Cadet Guidebook The individuals of the regiment are constantly cheerful when a new member joins in. We will willingly welcome all those who show interest by joining the regiment. Once joined the regiment, Cadets are expected to show great dedication and motivation towards the regiment as well as improving their melee and shooting in-game. If you are active and attend 2 events within the week, it will award you a promotion to the rank of Soldat de Deuxième and from there, you will slowly but surely progress through the ranks with melee skills and discipline. If you, however, encounter a problem within the regiment or your not to sure about something, then do please contact one of the Commanding Officers or a Non-Commissioned Officer as they will always be available if you need help with any issues. |
