Napoleon Builds An Empire Geller World History

“I grew up on the field of battle and a man such as I am cares little for the life of a million men.” –Napoleon Bonaparte

The Map of Europe is Redrawn Napoleon annexed (incorporated into his empire) the Netherlands, Belgium, Italy and Germany Napoleon abolished the Holy Roman Empire He placed his own brother, Joseph Bonaparte, on the throne of Spain The rulers of Austria, Prussia and Russia called him the “Corsican ogre.”

Napoleon Strikes Britain Britain was the only major European country to escape Napoleon’s control In 1805, Napoleon tried to invade England and was defeated by Admiral Horatio Nelson Napoleon then tried a blockade of Britain Blockade: shutting off ports to keep people or supplies from moving in or out.

Europe’s Blockade Failed During the blockade, British and French boats captured neutral ships on the Atlantic ocean This eventually led to the War of 1812 Napoleon’s blockade eventually failed The trade restrictions created scarcity in Europe Scarcity causes prices to increase

Nationalism in France Nationalism: an extreme love for one’s own country Nationalism spread among the French people during Napoleon’s reign However, nationalism also spread to other European countries This caused many revolts against France

Napoleon Invades Russia The tsar formally stopped supporting Napoleon In 1812, Napoleon gathered an army from 20 different countries, comprising of 600,000 soldiers and 50,000 horses Napoleon and the Grand Army invaded Russia just as winter was approaching The Russians fought back with a scorched-earth policy Scorched-earth policy: burning crops, villages, etc. to thwart your enemies

The Invasion Fails Napoleon entered Moscow in September Realizing he would fail, he turned around in October Fewer than 20,000 soldiers returned Soldiers deserted, starved, were attacked by Russians and froze to death

Napoleon Falls from Power Napoleon abdicated, or stepped down from power, in 1814 when Russia, Britain, Austria and Prussia fought against him Napoleon was exiled to Elba, and Louis XVIII (Louis XVI’s brother) was made king of France Napoleon escaped from Elba and returned to rule France for 100 days The British and Prussian armies once again defeated him in 1815 at the Battle of Waterloo, and Napoleon was sent to St. Helena Napoleon died in 1821 at St. Helena
