Bahá’u’lláh addressed two Tablets to Napoleon III
(1808-1873), in the second of which He clearly prophesied that Napoleon’s
kingdom would be “thrown into confusion”, that his “empire shall pass” from his
hands, and that his people would experience great “commotions”. Within a year,
Napoleon III suffered a resounding defeat, at the hands of Kaiser William I, at
the Battle of Sedan in 1870. He went in exile to England, where he died three
years later. - The Universal House of Justice (The ‘Notes’ section of 'The
Kitab-i-Aqdas')
