In 1800, Napoleon Bonaparte founded the Banque de France, not just as a bank, but as a war machine. For 15 years, this institution financed one of history's most ambitious military campaigns, funding armies that conquered most of Europe. This is the story of how Napoleon revolutionized banking to fuel his empire: how he created modern central banking, reformed the French currency, and used credit as a weapon. From the franc's gold standard to the Continental System's economic warfare against Britain, discover how Napoleon's financial innovations shaped modern banking. But when the gold ran out in 1812 after the Russian disaster, the system collapsed. By Waterloo in 1815, Napoleon's treasury was empty, his army undersupplied, and his empire finished. The lesson: empires run on money, and when money runs out, empires fall.
