The Battle of Waterloo: Napoleon’s Final Stand

The Battle of Waterloo: Napoleon’s Final Stand

In the summer of 1815, the gruelling Battle of Waterloo raged. It would be the conflict that would finally put an end to the intermittent warfare between France and other European powers, and usher in the downfall of Napoleon Bonaparte. But this bloody engagement would be costly, with Napoleon suffering as many as 26,000 casualties while European forces suffered around 24,000. It is considered the second bloodiest single-day battle in the Napoleonic Wars. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
