Best Answer

During the Napoleonic Wars in the late 18th and early 19th century in Europe, several coalitions were formed in opposition to the aggressive, militant rule of Napoleon in France. One primary motivation was the deep suspicion on the part of other European nations about the French Revolution: despite Napoleon's status as Emperor, French society continued to defy the traditional monarchical traditions still dominant in the rest of Europe. Another primary motivation was simply fear: Napoleon seemed bent on conquering and then oppressing Europe. The coalitions intended to prevent his tyrannical rule from spreading.
