Post; Role of Nationalism In the Deafet of Napoleon (Help Please!)


Hey guys, Im really having problems with an essey question I have to answer to complete this packet I have been required to do for an AP History Class Im taking. Most of the information has come easy to me, but Im really struggling with Issues regarding Napoleon, this being the first time Ive studied the man and the events surrounding his rule. That being said, Ive been given the following question to answer:

Quote:
"Nationalism is the element that ultimatley led to the downfall of Napoleon." Assess the validity of this statement using specific examples to support your argument.
I know already about the role of Spanish nationalism in response to Napoleon giving his brother rule there, but am basically lost when It comes to details on It's role In the big scheme of things. Should I include Nationalism In the "scourched-earth" like tactics the Russians used when he invaded?

Thanks for your help!
