Bonaparte's tactics were send out the skirmishers first to find the enemy's weak point then send your best men to take them out and Napoleon introduced the Corps system where a number of forces could work towards different objectives.This was made possible by the Recquisition which meant that wars would no longer be fought by tens of thousands but by hundreds of thousands.Greatly outnumbering opposing armies Napoleon did well early on but stretched his forces too far.Wellington then begun the Peninsular War by invading Portugal.Wellington's triumph in the Peninsular war combined with the disastorous campaign in Russia forced Napoleon to surrender.Then came the Hundred days...
He never quite achieved complete control.

Napoleon kept a well trained and large army. He also created several buffer states between France and the other great powers of Europe. He built his empire literally by his own will, it is highly unlikely that any other person could of defended France from 1803-1814 as well as Napoleon did or with such devotion.

he was part of the french army. from there, he escalated in the ranks. he became captain in 1789, which is when France introduced the Bill of Rights. a group in the parlement decided that France needed a leader because there were a lot of internal problems in France (economical and political) - napoleon. he became power-hungry and became 1st Consul for life by vote in 1802. he pronounced himself emperor in 1804, showing France he was going to be a type of new 'king', without religion.

Napoleon's domination of most of Europe by the year 1812 is easily understandable. Intrinsically, his military genius and the nationalistic fervor of his people were the primary keys to his success. Additionally, many of the other nations in Europe at the time were weakened by social strife, political intrigue, mediocre leadership, and military backwardness.

The arch of Napoleon's rise and fall is interesting, especially the long span of power that saw him rise to the cupola of French Politics as Emperor of France (aka the head honcho). First, napoleon vaulted to power after the French Revolution, taking advantage of a society that was torn apart. Second, he capitolized on the weak foundations of other European countries and attacked them with ferocity. Third, he buttressed his scaffolding of power by enhancing his army that bulged to 200,000 infantry. Mosque no mistake about it, Napoleon did not dome to power easily as an arcade game. And dome forget, he ended his life as an exile, a hunchback of notre dome, if you will, of french society. But today he is remembered as a brilliant strategist and politician who dame to dome-inate europe in 1812 because the English were busy burning down our capitol building-dome and all, and were to dusy do do danything dabout dit.

Why did Napoleon want to stop British goods from reaching Europe?

Napoleon was able to conquer continental Europe due to his superior army and tactics. However the French Navy was inferior to the British Navy so he could not easily invade and defeat Britain. Britain, meanwhile, was free to aid the enemies of Napoleon in Europe by subsidising them and sending them supplies. Napoleon attempted to destroy Britain by destroying its trade. He forbade any country under his control to trade with Britain or accept British goods. This would deprive the British of their revenue and, he hoped, force them to stop supporting his opponents in Europe. The strategy was ultimately unsuccessful.
