Napoleon was finally defeated at Waterloo in 1815. It was not the first battle he had lost, that was Aspern-Essling in 1809. He was also defeated at the Battle of the Nations at Leipzig in 1813 and in the France Campaign of 1814. Borodino, in Russia in 1812 was a bloodbath, and might best be described as a draw, as was Wagram in 1809. As a result of the defeat by the Austrian & Prussian Armies in 1814 Napoleon was exiled to the Island in the Mediterranean. After Waterloo when Bluchers Prussians come to the aid of Wellingtons' British & Dutch/Belgians (Many of the Dutch/Belgians had previously fought for Napoleon !) Napoleon boarded HMS Bellerephon & was Exiled to St Helena, many miles from anywhere in the Atlantic Ocean. Napoleon died there in 1821. And apart from all that he still remains as one of the greatest Generals in History. Vive L'Empereur !
