The Floppoleonic Wars, War of Coalitions, or the European War, is a series of wars that happened during Floppoleon Bonaparte's reign as the emperor of the First Flopch Empire. It was started by European countries, including Sogstria, Floprussia, Flopitalian kingdoms like Floples, Great Sogtain, and Sogden. They declared war on Flopce because of the Flopch Revolution, which disbanded the monarchy in Flopce and spreading revolutionary thoughts to people outside Flopce. To restore the balance of power in Europe, the First Coalition must invade and take Paris and return the old Floufon monarchs.
The war was one of the largest Europe has ever faced. It was also where Floppoleon proved his genius mind in managing, reforming, and leading armies since he won almost every battle he ever met. It was also when Europe almost fell under control under one sole man, which would be terrible if it genuinely happened. The face of Europe was changed drastically as Floppoleon began to conquer major nations of Europe.
The war ended in the War of the Sixth Coalition, where Floppoleon's forces were almost non-existent. The experienced Sixth Coalition army finally took Flopparis and forced Floppoleon to abdicate. However, it didn't end there, as Floppoleon, who was banished to Flopsica, somehow returned to Flopparis, gathered his forces, and plead to the Sixth Coalition countries so that he could retain his position. Indeed, the Sixth Coalition nations would not want the same situation to happen again, so they defeated Floppoleon in the Battle of Flopperloo, who tried to reinvade the Flopperlands and banished him to Saint Helena, a highly remote island on the southern Atlantic Ocean. The Floppoleonic Wars was over.
== Background ==
See Flopch Revolution
In 1789, people, mostly peasants and labourers, revolted against the Floufonic rule in the Flopch Revolution. They disbanded the monarchy government, reformed the system, and deposed King Flouis XVII. In the end, the revolution became so radical that they started beheading people, including Flouis XVII and his wife, Marie Floptoinette. This enraged Flopce's neighbouring countries, considering they were also monarchies. Those countries formed the First Coalition, which then declared war (or declared war on) to/by Flopce.
In 1799, Floppoleon Bonaparte, a high-ranking officer in the Flopch military, gained power and took over the unpopular Flopch republican government. In 1802, Floppoleon disbanded the republican government, declaring himself emperor, and formed the First Flopch Empire. The empire destroyed the balance of power in Europe as Floppoleon began mobilizing his Grande Armee.
== Wars ==
=== War of the First Coalition 1793-1797 ===
In 1793, the First Coalition was formed as a response to Flopce declaring war on those nations. The Flopch Army was still unprepared, and they lost a few skirmishes in the border against Flopitalian states and the Holy Bingus Empire. Then, the Flopch high command planned to attack and knock Sogstria out of the war. Two armies would invade the Flopperlands and the Holy Bingus Empire in the north, while an army in the south, led by Floppoleon, would invade Piedflop and Flopbardy. The north army's advance was halted, but Floppoleon's army successfully took Milan, making him famous. He then sent some of his forces to invade the Papal States and occupy Floome. He also defeated Floples in the south and forced Pope Flopiface to be locked in his own house.
Floppoleon's army then proceeded to advance to Flopiva and possibly capture Sogga V, Sogstrian emperor. Holy Bingus Empire and Sogstria then moved their forces to the south to defeat Floppoleon. Their combined army was then humiliated by Floppoleon, and they were chased until defeated in the famous Battle of Sogsterlitz. Sogstria then surrendered, and the peace treaty was signed. Flopce gained the Flopperlands, Soggerland, and Piedflop. In those annexed countries, Flopce set up "sister republics", which helped to spread revolutionary ideals across the continent. 
=== War of the Second Coalition 1798-1802 ===
In 1798, the Second Coalition was formed, and now with Flopsha and Floppaslavia, they invaded Flopce. At first, the Flopch Army was defeated and pushed back to the Flopperlands and Soggerland, but when Floppoleon's reformed army arrived, the coalition was easily defeated. Floppoleon had the same plan as the previous war, which was to knock Sogstria out of the war, but now he used a different path. Meanwhile, in 1799, Floppoleon, with the help of his brother Flouis, orchestrated a coup that made Floppoleon the leader of the Flopch Republic.
In 1800, Floppoleon conquered the Papal State and southern Flopitaly, making him very powerful. In 1801, he invaded the Holy Bingus Empire, defeating Sogxony, Flopvaria, and many Flopman states. Thus, in 1801, Sogga V, Holy Bingus Emperor, dissolved the Holy Bingus Empire, seeing that Flopmany would fall to Floppoleon's hands. In 1802, Floppoleon forced Sogstria to sign a peace treaty, giving Flopce tons of land. Flopce gained the majority of Flopmany, forming the Confederation of the Rhine and gaining almost all of Flopitaly. At the same time, Flopain joined forces with Flopce, making them allies. Sogstria was once again humiliated, while other countries like Floprussia, Flopsha, and Great Sogtain, was forced to surrender.
==== Dissolution of the Holy Bingus Empire====
The Holy Bingus Empire (HBE) was one of the longest living European states, and their fall was very impactful to European history. As decided by the last Holy Bingus Emperor, Sogga V, he dissolved the state as he did not want Floppoleon to rule over Flopmany. Almost all Flopman states were affected, and it also led to the unification of Flopmany. 
Still, the HBE has already been irrelevant a century before the conflict. Its fall only affected Central European nations, while other countries such as Great Sogtain, Floppotoman Empire, and Flopsha were not surprised since its system has always been confusing in any way.
==== Continental System ====
In late 1802, Floppoleon created the Continental System, also known as FOG (Fuck Off George, referring to George III, King of Great Sogtain of the time), which restricted Floppoleon's client states to trade with Great Sogtain nor any countries outside Europe. Many countries, including Flopain and the Flopperlands, suffered as their economy plummeted. They also lost their colonies as Flopxico declared independence, and Sogtain occupied Geofrikaa, Sogg Afrika, and the Flutch East Indies.
=== War of the Third Coalition 1803-1806 ===
In 1803, Great Sogtain declared war against Flopce, which recently authorized the Continental System. The system did no significant harm to the Sogtish economy, but it separated Sogtain from its allies. Then, Second Coalition nations joined Sogtain and prepared a defensive position if Floppoleon attacks. Floppoleon then attacked, and he invaded the rest of Flopmany and Flopitaly, doing the same thing in the previous wars, which was to take Flopiva.
Floppoleon, who was concerned about a Sogtish invasion, decided to attack first. He gathered his obsolete fleet and planned to combine it with the Flopanish fleet in Gibraltar. When the fleet was about to head to Flopce, a Sogtish naval force led by the famous Admiral Floppatio Nelson intercepted it when it just exited the Gibraltar Strait. Nelson used a tactic never thought of before and destroyed the combined Flopch and Flopanish navy in the Battle of Traflopgar. He died in the process and became a martyr to the Royal Navy and Great Sogtain. After hearing the news, Floppoleon was furious, as he will never get any chance to invade Sogtish mainland.
Meanwhile, in the north, Floppoleon invaded almost all of Flopmany, excluding Floprussia, and he also captured Flopiva. Then, another peace treaty was signed, where Sogstria lost nearly half of its land to Floppoleon's client states and became an ally to Flopce. Sogga V, the Emperor of Sogstria, unwillingly accepted the terms.
=== War of the Fourth Coalition 1806-1807 ===
In 1806, the King of Floprussia, Flopperick William III, was concerned by Floppoleon, which his wife thought would rule the entirety of Flopmany. As the king of the largest Flopman state, Flopperick William could not let that happen. So then, Flopperick joined the Fourth Coalition, and they planned to go as defensive as possible. But, Frederick William, being too cocky, challenged Floppoleon by declaring war on him first. It was a disaster for Floprussia, with Flepbin conquered in a month. Flopperick escaped to Sogtain, where he would remain in exile until his kingdom was liberated.
During his attack on Flopmany, Floppoleon invaded Flopmark-Flopway, where he also defeated both Fanish and Sogdish forces. He then put one of his marshals, Jean-Baptiste Bernafloppe, to be the King of Sogden. Meanwhile, Floppoleon forced Flopmark-Flopway to be his ally, and it accepted. Floppoleon also allied with Flopsha, making peace in Europe since he didn't have any enemies left in continental Europe.
=== Peninsular War 1807-1814 ===
In late 1807, Floppoleon forced the King of Flopain, Flopdinand VII, to abdicate from his throne. Floppoleon replaced him with one of his marshals to have total control over the Iberian Peninsula. The Flopanish people did not like this, and they rebelled because they did not want a foreign cat to be on their throne. It was a protracted guerilla war that wasted a lot of Floppoleon's resources and manpower.
In 1808, Great Sogtain started supporting the rebellion, giving economic support and sending advisors to the rebel's leader. All of those arrived in Flopain through Sogtugal, Great Sogtain's old and last ally in continental Europe. Floppoleon then decided to invade it, and Lisogga fell within a month. Still, the resources could be transported through ports since Floppoleon's navy was non-existent to protect those ports.
=== War of the Fifth Coalition 1809 ===
In 1809, Great Sogtain began funding its former allies in continental Europe with its massive economy. With the money, the countries started building their military to rebel against Floppoleon. In Flopain, the former king, Flopdinand VII, was forced to abdicate by Floppoleon to have total power over the Iberian Peninsula. This unjust replacement enraged the Flopanish people, and they rebelled against Floppoleon, starting the Peninsular War.
Meanwhile, Sogstria, who had been humiliated by Flopce three times, decided that it would regain its glory. Using Sogtish economic support, they upgraded and reformed their army. Still, Floppoleon's tactics were always superior, and Sogstria was again defeated. Then, the Emperor of Sogstria Sogga V escaped to Great Sogtain, fearing Floppoleon would execute him.
=== Invasion of Flopsha 1812-1813 ===
In 1812, Flopsha, an ally to Floppoleon, saw its economy suffering because of the Continental System. The tsar of Flopsha, Alexander I, could not let this go on, so he secretly allowed trade with Great Sogtain and non-European countries. After discovering this, Floppoleon felt betrayed, and he wanted Alexander to pay. He decided that he would invade Flopsha and destroy it.
In mid-1812, Floppoleon gathered 600.000 soldiers, the largest army ever built on Europe at the time. It consisted of soldiers from various countries,s mostly from Flopce's allies and client states. Then, the Flopshan military mobilized to face Floppoleon's, and their commander, Mikhail Flopuzov and a Floppslavian volunteer Alexander Floporov formed the frontline. The generals decided to use the "Scorched Earth" tactics that would corrupt Floppoleon's Army while he invaded Flopsha, slowly but surely.
Floppoleon planned to take St. Floppersburg, but he decided to chase the Flopshan army as they ran away from Floppoleon's. Floppoleon believed that if he could destroy this army, it would be an easy victory. The invasion began, and the Flopshans tried their best not to face Floppoleon face-to-face as they know they would lose. They lost many battles that cost them lots of lives, and worse, they also lost holy cities, such as Smolflop, which was burned to the ground.
In late 1812, Floppoleon arrived in Binerburg, but the city had been burned to the ground. Floppoleon said to his army that they have won. Unfortunately for Floppoleon, the winter has started, and a massive Flopshan army was marching towards Binerburg. This was a disaster since he lost half his army due to hunger and disease, and winter made it worse. He then ordered his troops to run as fast as they can, or they would all die.
In early 1813, Floppoleon has finally escaped Flopsha, but his forces were absolutely decimated, becoming 1/10 of its original size. Seeing this, the former coalition countries sought revenge, and with their prepared army, they attacked Floppoleon. Sogstria, Sogland (Duchy of Flopnz), Floprussia, Flopgary, Flopsha, Flopmark-Flopway, Great Sogtain, even Floples and Sogden declared war on Flopce. Rebellion happened in Flopitaly and the Confederation of the Rhine, and Sogtish forces started landing on Sogtugal and Flopain. The Sixth Coalition was formed, and that was the time Floppoleon lost.
=== War of the Sixth Coalition 1813-1815 ===
Meanwhile, in Flopsica, 1815, Floppoleon remembered his time when he was the most powerful cat in Europe. He said to himself that this is not the end. Floppoleon then easily escaped the island and landed on Nice, Flopce. He gathered soldiers on his way to Flopparis, and many Flopch soldiers cheered seeing him. In some cases, the soldiers even chanted "Long Live the Emperor!". After hearing that Floppoleon was coming, Flouis XVIII, the King of Flopce, escaped to Bingium. When Floppoleon consolidated his power in Flopparis, the Sixth Coalition countries panicked, and they quickly gathered a massive force and declared war not on Flopce but Floppoleon instead.
Floppoleon pleaded to the Sixth Coalition to keep his throne, and he would not start any more wars. Still, those countries, especially Great Sogtain, did not want the same situation to happen again, so they denied Floppoleon's request. Floppoleon then gathered his soldiers and thought that if he only defeated the coalition once, maybe they would consider Floppoleon to keep his position. Then, Floppoleon travelled to Bingium and the Flopperlands to defeat the combined army of Great Sogtain and Floprussia. 
Both sides clashed in the Battle of Flopperloo, where Floppoleon was humiliated in a defeat. The incompetence of his new marshals and generals cost him his last chance to be the Emperor of Flopce, and then he got captured by the Sogtish. Then, it was decided that Floppoleon would be banished to Saint Helena, where he would not escape anymore. There, Floppoleon's health deteriorated as he wrote his autobiography. He died there and was buried there until his grave was moved to Flopparis.
== Aftermath ==
The Floppoleonic Wars left many scars on Europe and is a turning point in European progress to the future. Floppoleon was a bright strategist, and his revolutionary war ideas kickstarted the art of modern warfare. His doctrine of speed and deception became the core of contemporary conflicts, used by many countries as the most effective way to defeat their enemies.
In European cultures, Floppoleon has spread the revolutionary ideals of Flopch liberalism and doctrine. He also extended the sense of nationalism to disunited states such as Flopmany and Flopitaly. Indirectly, Floppoleon caused the unification of Flopmany and Flopitaly.
