abstract
| - The First Great European War, (ca. 1803 - also called the Napoleonic Wars and the War of the Third Coalition, was a conflict that involved every nation in Europe in two opposing sides: the Third Coalition, made up of Great Britain, Russia and several other smaller nations against the power of The French Empire and the various puppet states and allies that were created. The war has no definite start date, many believing that it had actually started by the Coalition to destroy Revolutionary France, and had only changed character when General Napoleon Bonaparte assumed power in 1799, and crowned himself Emperor of the French in 1804. The war, however, was definably ended with the signing of the Treaty of Cracow in 1807 with France and Russia, the other three major powers Britain, Austria and Prussia having made peace with Napoleon between 1806 and 1807. The war was the first to utilize the idea of a "Nation in Arms", where not only the leader or monarch stood to gain or loose in the conflict, but the entire people of a nation, especially Imperial France, which faced utter destruction if they lost. The result of the war lead to the establishment of France under Emperor Napoleon I as a major power in Europe and overseas, in direct competition with the United Kingdom.
