Detailed explanation-1: -When the invasion began in the summer, Napoleon did not understand that Russia had very hot and humid weather that would exhaust his forces. Moreover, Russia in the summertime is susceptible to significant rainfall, making the dirt roads unfathomably muddy.
Detailed explanation-2: -Electrically charged volcanic ash short-circuited Earth’s atmosphere in 1815, causing global poor weather and Napoleon’s defeat, says new research. Historians know that rainy and muddy conditions helped the Allied army defeat the French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte at the Battle of Waterloo.
