Napoleon's Empire

Question 7 • 26/27 Modern World History A

Why were conflicts with Russia and Spain a turning point in Napoleon’s reign?

Answer
A
Napoleon became emperor in the wake of the conflicts.
B
Napoleon increased French territory as a result of the invasions.
C
Napoleon increased his support with the French people.
D
Napoleon lost much of his army, diminishing his ability to defend France.

Explanation

The invasions of Spain and Russia drained Napoleon’s military strength. The disastrous 1812 invasion of Russia destroyed much of the Grande Armée, and the Peninsular War in Spain also tied down large numbers of French troops. These losses weakened Napoleon’s ability to defend France, making choice D correct.
