Some historians say the War of the Third Coalition
was fought 1805-1807, thus including what is listed
here as the War of the Fourth Coalition.
Some also divide what is
listed here as the Sixth Coalition into the Sixth and
Seventh Coalition, which would make the 1815 coalition
the Eighth Coalition. |
