On June 22,1812, when Napoleon invaded Russia, Great Britain, Russia, Sweden and the army of Spanish guerrilla, remained allied against him.
It was called Continental System or Continental Blockade. It was enacted on November 21, 1806 by Napoleon as a countermeasure against the naval blockade of the French coasts started by the Great Britain in May 1806. It forbade all kind of trading relations between Great Britain and all European countries allied with or dependent upon France. But its effectiveness was limited by the British control of the sea, which allowed the British merchants to smuggle goods into those countries. On the long range this economic war caused more damages to France and its allied countries than those caused to Great Britain, and led to a general dissatisfaction among and a consequent weakening of the Napoleonic Coalition.
Napoleon Bonaparte escaped from exile on Elba and reformed his Army. Wellington had previously chosen the ground, assuming that a returned Napoleon would make a move for Brussels. Napoleon divided the armies of Blucher and Wellington, and having done so, hoping he could defeat them individually, he gave battle at the place where Wellington chose to hold him. This place was just south of a little town called Waterloo.Or: Napoleon's escape from Elba and his successful attempt to regain the power in a very short time, alarmed all the European Courts leading to an immediate mobilization of their armies.Napoleon claimed he had but no hostile intention against none of the European Nations and he wanted only rule France according to the clear wish expressed by the French people immediately after his return. But in vain: the mobilization went on and the first two allied armies, those of Great Britain and Prussia were deploying their troops through the Flanders (The Belgium of today).The general strategical plan of the Allied coalition foresaw to concentrate the most possible of their armies before getting engaged in the hostilities and then proceed to invade France, as they had already done in the campaign of 1814. In so doing they would have again had such a numerical superiority over Napoleon's army to secure them the victory.But Napoleon forestalled that plan and invaded Belgium, beating the Prussians at Ligny, thus dividing them from the British and forcing Wellington to fight at Waterloo.Or:Two great armies met.
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.
Its navy was the strongest as it remained on continuous for half the year - it was paid for by the contributions mulcted from its allied cities. Its army was a militia comprised of farmers and tradesmen called out for military service as required in emergency and was not paid.
Many reasons. Here are a few.Britain was determined to restore the Bourbon monarchy in France and so consistently bankrolled military coalitions against Napoleon.Napoleon's unpopular Continental System which banned trade between Britain and Napoleon's empire.Napoleon's invasion of Spain. Here his troops encountered resistance from guerrilla fighters. Napoleon greatly misjudged local attitudes to his reforms as well as the power and involvement of the Catholic Church in Spain.Napoleon's Russian campaign (1812). The Russians drew Napoleon as far as Borodino and burned down Moscow before Napoleon arrived. Napoleon should have quickly declared victory and left but he chose instead to wait for a treaty with the Tsar (temporarily residing in St Petersburg). It never came and the army marched back in bitter winter at the loss of 500,000 troops.The allied forces reached Paris in 1814, before Napoleon's brief rise over the 100 days return from Elba, until his final fall at Waterloo in 1815.
The Allied Nations fought against the Axis Powers. This was the United Kingdom, France, the United States, Canada, Australia and Soviet Union. Many other nations also sided with the Allied Nations.

He was forced to retreat the remaining of his battered army towards France, to fight the Allied Armies, which were aiming to break through its the natural borders.
No. They lost to Germany in the first full year of the war and the other Allied Nations had to liberate them.
One of the Allied countries who did not join the League of Nations was the United States. Hope this helps, but this may not be the complete answer!

Napoleon was finally defeated in 1815, at the Battle of Waterloo. The allied forces was led by the 1st Duke of Wellington, Arthur Wellesley.
Both Napoleon and Adolf Hitler made the mistake of taking on the might of Russia, and both were defeated mainly by the Russia winter. Their final defeats came about because other countries came together to form an allied force and fight against Napoleon and Hitler.
There were about 26 countries during WWI.
