"Thomas-Alexandre Dumas" - Assassin's Creed: Real History

For the ninth episode of “Assassin’s Creed: Real History” we shall review and discuss the history of the lesser-known General who made a name for himself during the French Revolution, and is now known as Thomas-Alexandre Dumas.

If you have any topic requests for a future video, in which you would like me to research the real history and compare it to the game’s representation, please leave me a comment!

Topic Choice
Despite the fact that this individual was so briefly depicted in Unity (just appearing in one co-op mission and a few side missions) I still felt he was definitely worth covering in a video. I do apologize for the limited footage of Dumas proper, throughout this episode.

Disclaimer
I am an amateur historian. History is not my official field of study, but rather a passion. This series acts as my hobby and as a way to share with you the real history behind characters, groups, events and locations that are depicted in the Assassin’s Creed video game series. Although I work hard to be as detail-oriented as possible, I am clearly not without fault and therefore welcome you to let me know whether you feel I have missed anything important or have misrepresented something in my video.
