Best Answer

Following Napoleon's defeat at Leipzig in 1814, he was exiled on the the island of Elba which is located off the coast of central Italy.

Napoleon escaped from Elba in 1815 and regained power in France again. The Quadruple Alliance of the Seventh Coalition outlawed him and Napolean was defeated at Waterloo in present day Belgium. He was exiled again, this time on Saint Helena, a tiny, remote and secure South Atlantic island off the coast of Africa.

What were Napoleon's failings?

Some submit that he was on a tremendous ego trip. After Leipzig he was sent to Elba where he still had a degree of power, his retinue, servants and he retained the title and formal address of Emperor of Elba. He was a big fish in a very small pond. He needed a much larger stage and determined to "Go For Broke" with a final toss of the dice.Even after his defeat at Waterloo, he did not meekly surrender. He considered a North American escape and even a South American venture but the path out of Europe was blockaded. He still had what it takes even in defeat. Napoleon demanded political asylum from British Naval Captain Frederick Maitland of HMS Bellerophon.
