The Last Great American Dynasty Is A Good Song And All That (not As Good As No Body, No Crime, Though)
the last great american dynasty is a good song and all that (not as good as no body, no crime, though) but i'm just filled with an urge for horrible histories to make a parody of it called the last great austro-hungarian dynasty featuring franz and sophie and i guess franz joseph, sisi, charles and zita too

On May 29, 1814, 210 years ago, Josephine Bonaparte passed away. And on this day I wanted to portray her with those who made her truly happy, those who were with her, literally, until her last breath - her children.
Dinner with the divorced couple
It was in December of that year (1809) that Napoleon stayed in these rooms for the first time, just after his divorce from Josephine. The daughter of his ex-wife, Queen Hortense, recalled a visit to the Emperor on Christmas Day: “[He] was moving to the Trianon Palace and made us promise to pay him a visit. I accompanied my mother. It was a touching encounter. The Emperor wanted her to stay for dinner. As usual, he took the seat opposite hers. It was as if nothing had changed […] A profound silence prevailed. My mother could not bear to eat, and looked to be on the brink of fainting. The Emperor dried his eyes two or three times without saying anything, and we left immediately after dinner. "
