The '''Battle of Waterloo''' took place on [[18 June]] [[1815]] in the [[Belgium|Belgian]] province of [[Waterloo]]. ([[BFA]]: ''[[The Curse of Davros]]'') It saw the defeat of the reconstituted [[French]] imperial army of [[Napoléon Bonaparte]] by the British under the [[Arthur Wellesley|Duke of Wellington]] and the [[Prussia]]ns under Marshal [[Gebhard Leberecht von Blucher|Blucher]]. The time-manipulating [[Player]]s tried to subvert this by [[Assassination|assassinating]] the Duke before the battle and then issuing false orders to the Prussian reinforcements. These attempts were thwarted by the [[Second Doctor]] and his companion [[Serena]]. Serena sacrificed herself to take the shot that would have killed the Duke | The '''Battle of Waterloo''' took place on [[18 June]] [[1815]] in the [[Belgium|Belgian]] province of [[Waterloo]].

The Doctor later posed as Napoleon to pass safely through French territory and deliver the message to the Prussians. This defeat marked the end of the French empire. Bonaparte was deposed as Emperor for the second time and once again exiled. ([[PDA]]: ''[[World Game]]'') | ||
As part of a plan to conquer Earth, [[Davros]] attempted to alter the outcome of the Battle of Waterloo by providing Napoleon with [[Dalek]] weapons, but when Napoleon learned of Davros's true agenda from the [[Sixth Doctor]], he deliberately allowed himself to lose to save humanity from being conquered by the Daleks ([[BFA]]: ''[[The Curse of Davros]]''). | As part of a plan to conquer Earth, [[Davros]] attempted to alter the outcome of the Battle of Waterloo by providing Napoleon with [[Dalek]] weapons, but when Napoleon learned of Davros's true agenda from the [[Sixth Doctor]], he deliberately allowed himself to lose to save humanity from being conquered by the Daleks ([[BFA]]: ''[[The Curse of Davros]]''). | ||
