โAnd whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry clay, they (the ten toes) shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clayโ (Dan. 2:43).
Again, we continue our historical review of figures who attempted to revive the Roman Empire during their reigns through the unification of Europe, yet failed. This only proves that the above scripture spoken by the prophet Daniel is true, thereby challenging every belief in a coming one-world government. It simply would not happen because it is not supported by Scripture or prophecy.
The next figure we shall examine is:
๐๐ข๐จ๐๐ฆ ๐ซ๐๐ฉ
Louis XIV may be unfamiliar to many of us in history. He was born on September 5, A.D. 1638, and became king at only five years old.
This was the man who ruled France for seventy-two years โ powerful, ambitious, vain, pompous, and extremely extravagant.
One of his famous sayings was, โLโรฉtat, cโest moi,โ which in French means, โI am the State.โ
By flattering French nobles, he was referred to as the โSun Kingโ and โThe Great Monarch.โ
Louis XIV became one of the most celebrated kings in Europe.
He fought many wars and sent his armies into Holland and the Low Countries. He also established colonies in the New World, stretching from Canada to Louisiana and the islands of the Caribbean.
Yet, he died on September 1, 1715, at the Palace of Versailles in Versailles, at the age of 76.
He reigned for 72 years and 110 days, making him one of the longest-reigning monarchs in European history.
Yet at death, he too failed to achieve a world empire. The words still stood:
โThey shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.โ

Here was another great leader who arose in Europe.
Born on August 15, 1769, in Ajaccio, Corsica (shortly after Corsica became part of France), Napoleon came from a modest noble family of Italian origin.
Napoleon was educated in military schools in France and became skilled in mathematics, artillery, and military strategy from a young age. He entered military school as a teenager and officially became a Second Lieutenant in the French Army in 1785.
He was only sixteen years old when he began his military career.
His rise became rapid during the chaos of the French Revolution. He gained fame through brilliant victories, especially in Italy and Egypt.
From the ashes of the French Revolution in the late 1700s arose Napoleon Bonaparte. โI will tear the heart out of glory,โ he once promised a friend.
He loved the military so much that at the age of ten he was sent to military school. In 1793, he was made a captain in the army, and in the same year he commanded the artillery that forced the British to withdraw from the Mediterranean port of Toulon. Within a short time, he was promoted to brigadier general.
Within two days of his marriage, Napoleon was off to command a French army invading Italy.
In this first major assignment, Napoleon proved himself a brilliant soldier who could inspire his troops with his own enthusiasm and make them willing to die for him.
Rise to Power
By 1799, France was politically unstable. Napoleon carried out a coup dโรฉtat and became ruler of France.
Then in 1804, he crowned himself Emperor of France.
He built one of the greatest military empires Europe had ever seen.
๐๐
๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ถ๐ ๐๐ผ๐ป๐พ๐๐ฒ๐๐.
At the height of his power (around 1810โ1812), Napoleon controlled or influenced most of continental Europe.
His empire stretched across:
France, Italy, Belgium, Holland, parts of Germany, Poland, Spain, Austria, and other territories under allied rulers.
Only Britain, Russia, and a few regions consistently resisted him.
His armies won famous battles such as Austerlitz, Jena, and Wagram.
How Was He Received in Conquered Lands?
Napoleon was viewed differently depending on the people and the region.
Some Welcomed Him
Many people initially welcomed him because he:
โข Ended feudal systems
โข Spread ideas of the French Revolution
โข Introduced legal reforms
โข Promoted merit instead of birth privilege
His Napoleonic Code influenced laws across Europe.
Others Hated His Rule.
Over time, many nations resisted him because of:
โข Heavy taxation
โข Forced military conscription
โข French domination
โข Economic hardship caused by wars
In places like Spain and Russia, fierce resistance developed against him.
๐๐ฎ๐บ๐ผ๐๐ ๐ค๐๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐ก๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ผ๐น๐ฒ๐ผ๐ป.
Some well-known sayings associated with him include:
โImpossible is a word to be found only in the dictionary of fools.โ
โA leader is a dealer in hope.โ
โVictory belongs to the most persevering.โ
โHistory is a set of lies agreed upon.โ
โAbility is nothing without opportunity.โ
His Downfall.
Two major events led to his fall:
1. The Russian Campaign (1812)
Napoleon invaded Russia with over 600,000 troops.
His downfall began after he decided to attack Russia in 1812. Though he had a more powerful army than Russia, he allowed his troops to be trapped deep within Russian territory during winter.
The harsh winter, starvation, and Russian resistance destroyed much of his army.
They did not have enough food, and they could not return home. Literally hundreds of thousands of soldiers perished in the ice and snow. Nearly the entire army was lost.
2. The Battle of Waterloo (1815)
After briefly returning to power, Napoleon was finally defeated at Waterloo by British and allied forces led partly by Arthur Wellesley, the 1st Duke of Wellington.
Early in 1815, Napoleon made one final attempt to return to power and unite the nations of the earth under his control.
He escaped from Elba and landed in southern France with a thousand supporters. As he marched north toward Paris, he gathered an army.
England and its allies hastily assembled their forces. In June, Napoleon attacked near Waterloo. As the sun sank on the third day of the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleonโs career sank with it.
Napoleon was exiled to the island of St. Helena in the Atlantic Ocean, a thousand miles off the coast of Africa. There, with only a few followers, he spent his final days.
In exile, Napoleon wrote his memoirs and gave what he believed was the reason for his failure:
โGod Almighty has been too much for me!โ
Perfectly stated!
Napoleon had come face to face with the incontrovertible word of the God of heaven uttered more than 2,400 years earlier:
โTHEY SHALL MINGLE THEMSELVES WITH THE SEED OF MEN: BUT THEY SHALL NOT CLEAVE ONE TO ANOTHER, EVEN AS IRON IS NOT MIXED WITH CLAY.โ
He died on May 5, 1821, at the age of 51.
Legacy
Napoleon Bonaparte remains one of historyโs most influential military and political figures.
He is remembered for:
โข Military genius
โข Administrative reforms
โข Expanding nationalism across Europe
โข The Napoleonic Code
โข Transforming modern warfare and government systems
At the same time, his wars caused millions of deaths across Europe, making his legacy both admired and controversial.
One thing is certain: he never succeeded in building a one-world empire out of a revived Roman Empire.
Now you can also read about:
๐๐๐๐ฆ๐๐ฅ ๐ช๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐
(January 27, 1859 โ June 4, 1941)
He was the German Emperor (Kaiser) and ruled Germany from 1888 until the end of World War I in 1918.
๐๐๐ข๐๐ ๐๐๐ง๐๐๐ฅ
(April 20, 1889 โ April 30, 1945)
He was the dictator of Germany from 1933 to 1945 and leader of the N**i regime during World War II. He died in Berlin near the end of the war after Germanyโs defeat became inevitable.
What am I saying?
There can never be a one-world government on earth to be ruled by the antichrist. No Scripture proves that.
