The Battle of Waterloo marked Napoleon's final defeat. Earlier in the year, Napoleon had escaped exile in Elba and returned to France, embarking on his Hundred Days campaign. Napoleon stormed Belgium near Waterloo, and was met by the British army, commanded by the Duke of Wellington, and the Prussians.
