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.


Which countries conquered napolion?

Napoleon was not defeated by one country. Although he was defeated and exiled earlier, he escaped and was ultimately defeated at the Battle of Waterloo by the Duke of Wellington (the British) and by von Blucher (a Prussian). There were also soldiers of varying European nationalities fighting, most notably the Dutch (Netherlands). Keep in mind that Napoleon's forces were mostly French and also the battle took place in June of 1815. Not World War 2 (as you stated in your category).
