One of the most decisive battles of the Napoleonic Wars, Waterloo was fought in a small area (some 10km by 4km) on the main road leading south from Brussels. The British and Prussian pursuit after Waterloo was relentless and prevented any chance of French consolidation. Waterloo ended Bonaparte's hold on power. Wellington lost 17,000 men, Blucher 7,000, and Bonaparte 32,000, with at least another 7,000 captured.
