The Battle of Waterloo started on June 18, 1815, near Waterloo, Belgium. Its conclusion marks the end of 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 strategists of all time, led on the side of the French. The Duke of Wellington and the Prussian Gebhard von Blucher commanded the Allied Seventh Coalition, composed of Prussian, Belgian, Dutch, German, and British troops.
The British ultimately exiled Napoleon to the island of Saint Helena in South Africa. He died at the age of 51 on May 5, 1821.
