Why did other countries want to defeat Napoleon?

Answer 1

After the French Revolution, and execution of the royal family, several nations broke out in war against France. The Prussian-Austrian army invaded northern France. By 1795, Spain, Hanover, and Saxony ended their wars, while Austria and Britain continued. Germany's prince initially did well against the French, but with the introduction of General Napoleon Bonaparte, the war changed.

The reason for the violent opposition to France and the French Revolution was because that the royalty of the various European states did not want their subjects to get the idea that forms of government other than monarchies, such as republics, were viable on the European continent. It was simply an attempt to retain the power they had had for centuries. It would take over a century before all of the major monarchies of Europe would be replaced with republics, but the ultimate downfall of the monarchies was the lasting testament of the French Revolution.
