(Also, obligatory Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell rec for anyone who wants more Napoleonic-era wizards and/or just really appreciates fictional footnotes.)

Oh, step 2 is easy. Convince Elio’s Imperiouser to take out Napolean. Probably not even difficult.

Although if it goes to a random adjacent dimension this wouldn’t work.

I was vaguely aware of the Portugese royalty going to Brazil at some point because I remember hearing the King of Portgual tell his son, who was currently in charge of Brazil, something like: "If they seem headed to independence, make them independent yourself and be the one to steer."

I didn't know details, so I checked Wikipedia about whether they died in reality.

Are orcs actually unable to get soul-married or are they just told that they can't and they never have the right expectations for it to happen?

My money's on "told that they can't".

Yeah. Soul-marriage would be inconvenient (less inclination to remarry if your spouse gets killed) so orcs are told it doesn't work for them (or, really, taught that it is a bizarre Elf trait and never have any reason to think it applies to them).

"We check for Finweans and Bells by default" I'm cackling

Edit: and apparently there's an undocumented Bell since their world is still just a number.
