>Italy, Austria, HRE, Russia, and Spain and planned to invade England
They were pretty unfriendly after the Revolution.

>invades Italy
Italy was an Austrian possession and Austrian forces invaded France from there in the first two coalition wars
France took over it after defeating Austrians
>Austria
Austria invaded France first, but got repulsed and then invaded
>HRE
Same as Italy, former Austrian possession used as an advanced base
>Russia
Russia had waged three wars of agression against France (one of which at the French-Italian border) before France finally invaded them
>Spain
Spain attacked France first in the War of the First Coalition
>and planned to invade England
Literally the country that started the Napoleonic Wars and kept them raging
Invading Britain would have meant putting an end to it
Not to mention Brits had unsuccessfully invaded France multiples times between 1795 and 1815

>invaded a country that didn't even exist at the time

>Spain attacked France first in the War of the First Coalition
yes but allied with France from 1795 to 1808 and then who betrayed who?
>>3235064
The government of france betrayed its people and the Spanish government was an actor in this betrayal.

>yes but allied with France from 1795 to 1808
More like they were subdued into "alliance"
A subdued former enemy isnt an ally
They were to France what Vichy France was to Nazi Germany

>my country was on france's side
ayo we helped n shiet
>>3234969
Napoleon could have made better decisions, but the fucking British were the puppet masters pushing Austria, Prussia, Russia, etc. to keep waging war on France.
Napoleon made aggressive advances for the sake of France's preservation and future.

The French have really been thraumatized by WWII to think that every single defeat ever has been an unconditional surrender.
>>3234969
Didn't Napoleon also try to erase the existence of the Osten-Sackens, the Bogdanovs, the Kolowrats, the Romanovs, Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, and the Hohenzollerns?
