    Sorry, I don't get it. Or is the joke that Egyptians are fools?

      I know he's a translator (so am I, which is why I follow him). But I got it now. Napoleon conquered Egypt because Mox the Elder goaded him.

    That's it, Dolf! I felt that many readers wouldn't get the joke, but I really wanted to make a strip about the Rosetta Stone, the presence of Napoleon being a plus.

      Yeah, I missed it the first time because I didn't realize Mox the Elder was intentionally goading Napoleon.
