What country did the Battle of Waterloo take place?
As far as a country's official forces were concerned, France, Britain, Prussia (most of present day northern Germany) and The Netherlands (including what is now Belgium).
Of course there were members of other countries fighting as part of another army, such as 19,000 from the German states of Hanover, Brunswick and Nassau in Wellington's army as well as 6,000 in the German Legion, (part of the British Army).
Individuals from other parts of the world also took part but not representing their country.
As the Dutch Army had only just been re-established in 1815 it was interesting that they and some of their German allies had once been members of Napoleons army.
If you mean the American Civil War, yes, four of them, from 1861 to 1865. Other civil wars have been longer, but few have been bloodier.

One of the first actions for the participants during a war is to embargo all trade to your opponent. Trade from America to Europe had to go by sea and Britain, (the main enemy of Napoleon), had the largest navy, by a long way.
Napoleon was using other European countries to place a trade embargo on Britain, so it was only right for Britain to do the same, which hurt trade to and from America. This was especially so between 1812 and 1815 when America declared war on Britain and her dependencies.

The second similar war would be the Vietnam War, even though it was not "technically" a civil war...as no nation involved was fighting itself. However there were many more similarities to the US Civil War than there were to the American Revolutionary War:
1. US Civil War & Vietnam both had the military draft (the first & the last)
2. Both had a Brown Water Navy (Riverine Warfare)
3. Both were fought between a North & South
4. The North clearly won the war in both cases
5. The South clearly lost the war in both cases
6. A US President was assassinated with a bullet to the head in both cases
7. A US Vice President named Johnson took office in both cases
8. Both wars divided the American people

The guy was brilliant, but...
Napoleon didn't try to take over Russia, he tried to do what he always did, destroy the enemy armies. He didn't even want to take Moscow --- no point as the Tsar was based in St Petersburg. His whole ethos was to get the enemy to accept battle, anything else was secondary.

The advance on Moscow was a waste of time and his biggest mistake.
