Battle of the Nile, 1798

Описание к видео Battle of the Nile, 1798

In 1798, Napoleon Bonaparte sailed from France in an attempt to invade Egypt. As Great Britain was at war with France, any expansion of French influence in the Middle East and Mediterranean was a worrying sight. The Admiralty sent a squadron under Horatio Nelson to investigate the French build-up of forces in the south of France, and Nelson in turn chased the French all over the Mediterranean until catching up to them in Egypt. The naval battle that followed was Nelson's first in command.
