Napoleon's grand empire fell as a result of several interconnected factors. The first was that Napoleon's governing policies were harsh and repressive towards those nations that had fallen under French control; as a result, French rule was bitterly resented and incited rebellion. The second was Napoleon's own excessive ambition: he stretched towards greater military achievements rather than choosing to rule well what had already been conquered. Finally, French resources became stretched and eventually broke under the pressure of the many enemies which Napoleon's policies had created.
