On 6 April 1814, Napoleon Bonaparte abdicated his throne. After 15 years of armed conflict, the Emperor of France and conqueror of a large portion of Europe was exiled to the tiny island of Elba. He spent only 9 months and 21 days there. With a meager partisan fleet of seven ships and 1,000 men, Napoleon escaped his island prison on 26 February 1815. He landed again on French soil to a warm reception. The royalist nobility had resumed mistreating the proletariat and veterans of the Grande Armée. These were a few of the factors that helped swell the number of Napoleon’s troops until they became an army. And then even more men followed.
Since 1893, W. Britain has produced toy soldiers and military miniatures with attention to detail, quality, and authenticity. Each model figure is cast out of metal and hand-painted to the highest possible standards.
