ABOUT THE SONG
\nThe Battle of Waterloo on June 18, 1815, was Napoleon’s final defeat, resulting in a victory for the allied forces led by the Duke of Wellington and the Prussian army. After repelling French attacks, Wellington’s forces advanced, while the Prussians arrived to join the fight, causing the French army to panic and retreat in disarray. This defeat ended Napoleon’s rule, leading to his exile and permanently ending his ambition to control Europe.<\/p>\n
