The Treaty of Paris 1814

Tsar Alexander I of Russia |
Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte |
The Battle of Paris was fought on March 30-31, 1814 between the Sixth Coalition - led by Tsar Alexander 1 of Russia and the First French Empire. After a day of fighting in the suburbs of Paris, the French army surrendered on March 31, resulting in Emperor Napoleon's first abdication and exile to the island of Elba. Although temporarily interrupted by Napoleon's unexpected escape from exile and 100 days restoration of his rule, the first Treaty of Paris, signed on 30 May 1814, formally ended twenty years of Napoleonic wars and reinstated the Bourbon dynasty under a constitutional monarchy in the person of King Louis XVIII.
