The Sèvres Egyptian Service is a name used for two sets of tableware made by the Manufacture nationale de Sèvres during the First French Empire. The first was produced between 1804 and 1806 for Napoleon I and was presented by him to Alexander I of Russia in 1808, as a diplomatic gift following the Treaties of Tilsit. It is now held in the State Museum of Ceramics in Russia.

The second set was produced between 1810 and 1812. It was intended as a gift from Napoleon to Empress Joséphine. The service consisted of 72 plates with the wells depicting scenes from Egypt based on sketches made by Vivant Denon. Joséphine refused to accept the service, which she described as "too severe". It was returned to the factory and given as a gift to the Duke of Wellington by Louis XVIII in 1818, following the Bourbon Restoration. The service was purchased by the Victoria and Albert Museum in 1979 and, except for one plate, was loaned to English Heritage to display at Apsley House, London, the former residence of the first duke.

The website doesn't seem to load on my Microsoft Lumia 950 with Microsoft Edge, this could some dumb "anti-spam" measure, or an issue with connectivity. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 07:39, 23 July 2021 (UTC) .
Had to switch back to my Elephone P8 Mini with Google Android, the Microsoft telephone couldn't load the Lê Minh Khải Blog at all, likely this is because the website rejects my Microsoft telephone, like how Ecosia also rejects and needs "to check my browser" basically every time I search sởmething. Meaning that I have to manually switch between devices more often, thankfully the images from the Lê Minh Khải Blog do load on my Microsoft telephone 📞. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 18:59, 23 July 2021 (UTC)

Regarding a couple statements made in the article for context, notably "The core of the problem of (at least the first episode of) this documentary is that it is entirely America-centric. It is based on a fantasy that the American government can determine the fate of world affairs, and that individual Americans can influence US government policy." and its immediate follow-up at: "The “lesson” that the documentary seeks to teach is then that there are times when world affairs do not follow the standards of American ideals, and that this is because the US government does not listen to the good ideas of individual Americans." I would have to say that this document 📄 is free because the world is so" Americacentric", if it was the Soviet Union invading a capitalist country all of its documents would be copyrighted. Regarding the narrative themed: "Let’s call this the “Americans are so stupid” self-loathing narrative." Yeah, this is immensely arrogant, but at least most files 📂 related to these things are declassified and easily accessible and shareable for historians. --Donald Trung 『徵國單』 (No Fake News 💬) (WikiProject Numismatics 💴) (Articles 📚) 19:05, 23 July 2021 (UTC)
