Who Bought Britain for Pennies on the Pound

---

In 1815 the Battle of Waterloo was won by Britain with the help of Prussian forces.

At the time the Rothschild banking family had an office in London England which was the domain of one Nathan Rothschild who through his astute business practices, was favoured with the privilege of financing much of the English war effort.

Nathan was fairly involved and thereby positioned to learn of the outcome of the battle through a note sent by carrier pigeon which was considerably faster than the horses and channel traversing technology of the time.

News was spread that Britain had been defeated by Napoleon. The nation reacted and the impact on the financial markets was devastation.

The Rothschild bought everything they could with their extreme wealth.

When the official news arrived the nation rejoiced, the markets bounded and the Rothschilds owned Britain.

There are inadequate official records to prove the claims but their is ample evidence to make the assertions. There are also sources and evidences which have apparently been suppressed.

This story is not the only evidence of inside information about the outcome of The Battle of Waterloo and in another instance a man named David Ricardo became an overnight millionaire.

Ricardo took a very large loan and purchased stock just prior to the battle which he would not sell despite a really scary market and the hightailing of most other investors.

The greater narrative alluded to here is the methods and abuses such as the Rothschilds employ in self enrichment at cost of entire nations.

More on this theme the next episode in Tales of the Money Changers.
