Leipzig 1813 Battle of the Nations Set

Item No. 6119

Description

The Battle of Leipzig was fought in October 1813 and was one of the most important engagements of the Napoleonic Wars. It is also known as the "Battle of the Nations" because of the large number of armies involved. On the battlefield stood the troops of Napoleon's reconstituted French army, rebuilt after the devastating defeat during the Russian campaign, supported by several allied states, facing the armies of the Sixth Coalition, composed primarily of Russia, Prussia, Austria, and Sweden. The battle lasted from 16 to 19 October near the German city of Leipzig and marked the beginning of the final decline of Napoleon's domination in Europe. Napoleon's remarkable military skill was not enough to overcome the numerical superiority of the forces fielded by the rulers of the Sixth Coalition.
