How important a part did Britain play in the downfall of Napoleon?
Britain overcame Napoleons Continental System, this forced other less powerful states to choose sides over France or Britain and a few swayed sides towards Britain. Britain actually thrived during this time and most of Europe took a financial hit because of the laws. Britain was also a part of all of the coalitions that fought France and weakened their army enough to the point where they defeated Napoleon and exiled him. When Napoleon returned from his exile he was defeated by the coalitions again in Waterloo where he was finally exiled to St. Helena and eventually died of cancer. This all shows that not only did Britain have a role in defeating Napoleon but they were one of the main reasons he was defeated.

What country defeated Napoleon Bonaparte?
Napoleon was ultimately defeated at Waterloo in 1815 by the British with the (not inconsiderable) aid of Prussia. However this does nothing to mention what had happened at Wagram, Aspern-Essling, Borodino or Leipzig & elsewhere in previous times & in previous campaigns. Indeed many of Wellingtons allied forces at Waterloo had fought for Napoleon in previous years. Napoleon had run out of friends on the battlefield. No Saxons, Bavarians, Wurttembergers to do his bidding any more. Britain had been constant in opposition, but it was the loss of his continental allies which made the difference.
