  "description": "Sums and shares quoted on the Minard's map page, one claim per row with its basis: men on the bands at the start, at each band's last advance figure and at the end, men no longer on any band during the advance and during the retreat (the retreat both net and with its drops added one by one), their shares of 422,000 and of 412,000, the half-way point, and the main band where the first reading below zero is drawn. Our arithmetic on Minard's printed figures; these count men who leave the map's bands, not deaths. Retrieved 2026-10-31. License CC BY 4.0.",
