Napoleon Reaches His Peak from 1807-1812…
But, Problems Are Forming:
.
• France’s Empire is huge and difficult to control
![Page 10: Napoleon 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062220/55632b4cd8b42a61348b4fe1/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Three Costly Mistakes:
1. The Continental System
2. The Peninsular War
3. The Invasion of Russia
![Page 11: Napoleon 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062220/55632b4cd8b42a61348b4fe1/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Continental System - November 1806
A blockade designed to cut England off from Europe– To destroy British trade– To exclude it from Europe’s affairs
Problems with Continental SystemWas not executed correctly –
Weakened economy of France
Made others rebel against Napoleon
![Page 12: Napoleon 2014](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062220/55632b4cd8b42a61348b4fe1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The Peninsular War - 1808
• Portugal ignored Continental System• Napoleon sent army through Spain • to overthrow Royal Family• Spanish towns rioted in • Napoleon deposed Spanish king • He made his brother king of Spain and
Portugal• Port. Royals fled to Brazil,

This made the Spanish angry
– Very loyal to king
– Engaged in 5 years of guerrilla warfare, which cost Napoleon 300,000 troops
– Other countries like Germany and Italy also started guerrilla warfare

3rd mistakeInvasion of Russia - 1812
Invading Russia = Napoleon and Czar of Russia were allies
– Napoleon thought that czar was selling grain to Britain
– N. feared that czar wanted Poland from France– N. decided to invade Russia

Sept. 14, 1812: Entered MoscowCzar ordered it burned down
– ScorchedEarth Policy: EVERYTHING destroyed to keep from French:
– Barefoot, starving soldiers attacked by Russians– deaths and desertions
– Temperature: on one day, -30º: Birds fell dead from sky

surrender written by czar
