Well France was basically against 3 countries, UK Portugal and Spain
Napoleon had about 100,000 enemies at Waterloo and they were led by the Duke of Wellington and Field Marshal Blucher.
Napoleons worst enemy was Great Britain.
napoleon bonaparte
France was fighting to occupy Spain. Napoleons brother Joseph was to be king. Spain did not produce many generals of note & Wellington found them unreliable allies. The same could not be said of the Portugese under Marshal Beresford, who, like Wellington, was British. Wellington has 3 major victories: Talavera, Salamanca & Vittoria. The only Marshal Napoleon awarded a Spanish title to was Marshal Gabriel Suchet.
In a war, that is aircraft owned by the country you are fighting against.
A permanent enemy of the UK.
