List of battles during the Campaign of France

The Campaign of France was the closing phase of the War of the Sixth Coalition. Listed are all the major engagements and a number of minor engagements, more of which may be uncovered by research. Due to the severe depletion of the French military and being massively outnumbered on many fronts, many engagements concluded with cities being captured amidst little or no fighting.

The campaign is divided into the following theatres:

  • The Campaign in North-East France, the largest and most notable of the theatres owing to Napoleon's personal command
  • The Campaign in Southwest France, the British-led invasion of southern France, and the closing theatre of the Peninsular War
  • The Campaign in Eastern France, the Austrian invasion of eastern France
  • The Campaign in the Mediterranean, the naval campaign led by Britain and maritime republics against the coastal territories conquered by France (Dalmatia, the Ionian islands, and parts of Italy)
  • The Campaign in Southeast France, which did not take place in France proper, but in Piedmont, Parma, and Genoa, which were contemporarily part of France
  • The Campaign in the Low Countries, the British-Russian invasion of the former Netherlands and Austrian Netherlands, then part of France until the former's secession on 20 November 1813
