
Explain
Napoleon’s rise
to power,
defeat and
consequences
for Europe

Napoleon had a phenomenal ability to memorize facts. That came as
an advantage because it made his troops want to fight and gave
them motivation. Napoleon was successful militarily because he took
ideas of others and adapted them. He used two techniques: Rapid
movement of troops and Massing troops at critical points on the battle
field. He also used propaganda. Napoleon severed in the army during
French Revolution. He was becoming too powerful and that worried
the Directory. His plan was to take over Europe. He took over most of
central Europe -formed the Confederation of the Rhine to help him
govern all those nations. He changed the map of Europe. As a result
after his defeat, there were revolutions all over Europe because
nations didn't like the boundaries drown by the Vienna of Congress. In
1804, Napoleon made France an Empire and crowned himself
Emperor. He also issued the Berlin-Milan Decree that blockaded Britain
and Europe- called the Continental System. No country on the
continent of Europe could trade with Britain or it's allies without
Napoleons permission. Russia refused to obey it. Spain revolted against
him while Britain was fighting him and Napoleon decided to invade
Russia. He sold the Louisiana Purchase to finance the invasion of
Russia. French troops were not used to being in cold weather like
Russians in the winter. This was the beginning of the end for Napoleon.
He was unprepared for the unexpected. Four nations of Europe were
formed to stop Napoleon, it was called the Quadruple Alliance. They
got together to stop him at the city if Leipzig in Belgium and forced
him to abdicate. During that battle the Duke of Wellington defeated
him. His reasons for downfall were: Failure to dominate seas was his
biggest problem, defeat of russia was the beginning of the end for
him, and he did not stick to his own tactics during the battle with
Wellington and he used it against him.

failed to overpower the Balkans.
The alliance was made to keep
peace in Europe, but it did the
exact opposite. Alliances were
being formed. Italy, Germany,
and Austria-Hungary formed the
triple alliance. Europe's nations
thought that they needed to
have a powerful military
prepared to move quickly in
case of a war. This caused
countries to have detailed plans
for the mobilization if troops.

Describe the
conditions on the
war front for
soldiers including
the Battle of
Verdun.

Conditions of war fronts for soldiers
were miserable. In trench warfare,
soldiers fought each other from
trenches. Gaining land between
trenches caused many of the
soldiers' lives. Many soldiers died in
gaining very small amounts of
land. The mud in the fields was
formed from the blood of soldiers.
The trenches were unsanitary and
there was no fresh food for
people. When troops went over
the top of the trenches into "no
man's land," there was nearly no
chance of survival. In the Battle of
Verdun, over 20,000 British soldiers
were killed in the first day of
battle.


$33 billion in reparations over
30 years. Germany's military
was limited to a certain size.

Ottomans' land and made
mandates. Britain controlled
Palestine, Iraq, and
Transjordan. France controlled
Syria and Lebanon.

Europe in the
collapse of the great
empires including

power and the dynasty lo
longer existed.
