History Napoleon Bonaparte Questions
The Hundred Days refers to the period from March 20 to June 22, 1815, during which Napoleon Bonaparte returned from exile on the island of Elba and briefly regained power in France. It is significant in Napoleon's life because it marked his final attempt to regain control of France and restore his empire after his initial defeat and abdication in 1814. However, his reign during the Hundred Days was short-lived as he was ultimately defeated at the Battle of Waterloo, leading to his second and final abdication and exile to the island of Saint Helena.
