Battle of Austerlitz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It was not humid at all, that December of 1805 when Napoleon's armies made buzzard sushi out of Austrian and Russian forces. He probably even had to sleigh away from the battlefield.

This is the battle the features heavily in Tolstoy's War and Peace. http://napoleonistyka.atspace.com/Ru...#_in_1799-1806 The Russian reaction to the French victory was one of the oddest in history as Russia was one of the first of the defeated nations to get back up and stand its ground.
