In your opinion, who was the greatest military commander of all time ?
I'm gonna be a french patriot and say Napoleon : He was promoted Genaral at only 24 (after he won his first significant battle, the Siege of Toulon, 1793), won his first campaign at only 28 (Italian campain, 1796-1797), for almost 20 years (1796-1814) he thought and defeated a large coalition of ennemies (England, Prussia, Austria, Russia) and won many battles in wich his enemies armies outnumbered his.
Many of his battles are still studied in military schools.
