What does the Waterloo battleground look like?

The Waterloo battlefield is composed (roughly) of two ridges between a valley. At the southeast end of the field is La Belle Alliance, the ridge used by French forces during the battle. At the other side of the valley is the ridge used by British forces. The Hougmont and La Haye Sainte farms are in the middle of the valley and were fought over quite heavily during the battle. It is usually lush and green as is most Belgian countryside. During the battle, though, rain had made parts of the field quite muddy. See the related link for a view from the British lines looking over the valley.

Did Napoleon lose the Battle of Waterloo because of his wife?

No. Napoleon used a strategy that usually always won him the battle or war. It is also how he built his empire. He broke his military into three units. The Main unit, the Left unit, and the Right unit. When the Main unit was fighting the enemy on the battlefield, his left and right units would then come and surround the enemy from the left and right (blocking them in on three sides). After Napoleon escaped from exile, his forces were much smaller but he still used the same strategy which also relied on perfect timing of his other two units. It is recorded in history books that his general who was in command of his right unit took a right at a bridge instead of a left and crossing over the bridge to join the battle. After realizing that he had made the mistake, the general had the troops back track to the bridge, however, it is recorded that this general and men showed up to the battle of Waterloo an hour after it had been finished. Without his right unit, Napoleon could not fight off the three nations and lost the battle of Waterloo.

Which European country was the first country to use rockets in battle?

Answer The British established a Rocket battalion during the Napoleonic Wars in early 1800's. They were used at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. They were also used by the British in the War of 1812 against America---thus the national anthem's line that says "in rocket's red glare". I don't know if this was the first use of rockets. But it was probably the first operational use by a large number of rockets.
