• Answer:

  There's too much here for one person to answer in one go in sufficient detail. You need to post each question separately (or maybe in pairs);that way you should get most of them answered. I'll do 2 for you now: 13: Leipzig was Napoleon's first major defeat in a large scale set piece battle where he was in direct command. This considerably boosted the morale of the enemy commanders opposing him for the rest of the war.It ended the French presence east of the Rhine,and convinced all of the German states that had previously been allied to Napoleon to change sides and join the Sixth Coalition.Napoleon lost 38,000 killed and wounded and over 20,000 captured as well as 325 cannon captured - devastating losses coming after the loss of 90% of his army during the Russian campaign of 1812-1813.The Coalition victory enabled them to press on and invade France,forcing Napoleon's abdication less than 6 months after the battle. 19: The purpose of the Congress of Vienna was to settle all outstanding political and territorial questions in Europe following the abdication of Napoleon to the satisfaction of the major powers of the Sixth Coalition - Britain,Austria,Russia,and Prussia.Further,the powers wanted to set up the Congress Sysytem,designed to settle disputes in Europe through diplomacy and negotiation rather than war (the method that had been used for at least the previous 300 years plus).
