The Battle of Waterloo started on June 18, 1815, near the town of Waterloo, Belgium. Its conclusion marks the end of the French domination in Europe and the rise of the United Kingdom as a superpower.
The Battle of Waterloo was fought between the French and Allied Seventh Coalition. Napoleon Bonaparte, considered one of the most brilliant war strategist of all time, led on the side of the French. The allied Seventh Coalition, composed of Prussian, Belgian, Dutch and German and British troops, were commanded by the Duke of Wellington and the Prussian Gebhard von Blucher.
Napoleon ultimately was exiled by the British to the island St. Helena in South Africa. He died at the age of 51 on May 5, 1821.
