What if France won the 7 years war, and England had a revolution. Also, Horatio Nelson becomes Britain's Napoleon. French revolution but in Britain basically.

Jerry "Sega" Nelson - Segas de l'Ile Maurice[Mauritius ? France?, Exotica, World] (1959)
As a Mauritian myself I was puzzled hearing that. Its from France's national library, but I'm pretty sure very few people from Mauritius itself have heard about this. I really doesn't sound that much like Mauritian music, instead it sounds more like bastardized afro-euro-carribean music.
Enjoy!

Calvi, France (Corsica). This beautifully situated fortress was first built in the 13th century to protect the ancient town of Calvi. During the siege of Calvi in 1794, Lord Nelson (one of history's greatest admirals) sustained the injury that cost him his eye. I'll post more in the comments.
