What’s a weird historical fact you heard of? I’ve read that ancient Egyptians would kill people if they killed cats even if it was accidental you

Would still be punished by death😬

People think Napoleon was short because when he got an outfit, they measured him as 5'2".

But the foot was not universally standardized yet, and in that city/town a foot equaled 13 inches instead of the today standard of 12 inches.

So Napoleon was 5'2" based on a 13" foot, so in the standard 12" foot measurement, he was actually 5'7" or slightly above average male height of that time/area.
