Army of Napoleon stopped its invasion in Russian Empire with the heavy losses for Napoleon's Army.
Both Napoleon's French and Hitler's Nazi Germany troops, invading the Russian Empire (Soviet Union), ultimately suffered losses due to the territory's harsh climate, a lack of resources to sustain troop activity, and the sheer number of opposing troops. Napoleon's defeat is well-serialized in Leo Tolstoy's epic novel "War and Peace;" both Napoleon's and Hitler's losses have been charted in any number of scholarly monographs.
When he invaded Russia
His invasion of Russia in 1812. He went into Russia expecting to win quickly, but then when he didn't he ended up being stuck in the country, completely unprepared for winter. Also, as the Russian army retreated they burned everything so that Napoleon's army was not able to gain anything useful. As he tried to retreat out of Russia his army was frozen, starved, or picked off by Russian guerrillas. His losses were tremendous.

No you cannot apply for non-capital losses against dividend income. Capital losses only offset capital gains up to 3K a year capital losses may be used against ordinary income.
In WWI, losses on the Russian Front led the the Russian Revolution, the Russian Civil War, and Communist Russia. In WWII, the Russian Front proved to be Hitler's biggest strategic blunder, especially his irrational obsession with Stalingrad.
Impact on Russian people and whole world was tremendous. High losses and suffering in World War I caused two revolutions first against Monarchy in February 1917, second communist takeover in November 1917 and another bloody civil war right after that.
You must first take them against stock gains (of the same type, long or short) and you may take up to 3,000 a year losses against ordinary income after that. Any unused losses can be carried forward to the next year.
The first reason : Russian -European appointed bogey . In the XV century. To whom was scaring whom to fear and whom to blame for their troubles . Sit there somewhere in the east Russian . Scary as! Reason Two : Russian big. Quite big . The biggest . So that even scary . Funny, that Russia became so big due to the fact that she was trying to protect against external attacks . The third reason: to fight with Russia uncomfortable . Even when she loses, "winner" carries such losses that sickening . Not to mention the fact that Russia does not pay attention to the laurels of " invincible generals ." Who is it thrashed Napoleon and Hitler destroyed ? Terrible thing . The fourth reason : Russian differ . Strictly speaking, all differ from each other , but somehow Russian too scary. You can still be a long list different reasons , but the main , in my opinion , the desire to be frightened .
