Waterloo

18 June 1815

The Battle of Waterloo was fought on Sunday, 18 June 1815 near

Waterloo in present-day Belgium, then part of the United Kingdom of the

Netherlands.

An Imperial French Army under the command of Emperor Napoleon was

defeated by combined armies of the Seventh Coalition, an Anglo-Allied

army under the command of the Duke of Wellington combined with a

Prussian Army under the command of Gebhard von Blücher.

It was the culminating battle of the Waterloo Campaign and Napoleon's

last. The defeat at Waterloo put an end to Napoleon's rule as Emperor of

the French and marked the end of his Hundred Days return from exile.
