What made Wagner's operas different from those of the French and Italian varieties?
There are so many different 'varieties' the question would need a thesis. However put very simply - Wagner wrote 'music drama' and usually on a grand scale, for both voice and orchestra. Many a voice has been ruined by singing Wagner because the roles are very heavy on the voice. His grand scale can range from Meistersingers of Nuremberg [over 4 hours] to the Ring cycle [well over 12 hours].
Why did Richard Wagner call his works Music Dramas rather than Operas?
there is a continuous musical flow within each act. there are no breaks where applause can interrupt. the vocal line is inspired by the rhythms and pitches of the German text. They are called music dramas because the story is told as much by the orchestra as by the text, through Wagner's system of leading motives and identifying themes for each character. Wagner felt that operas before him were just music set to words, and he wanted the music itself to tell the story.
