Answer:

His invasion of Russia

Step-by-step explanation:

Time and Time again rulers have invaded russia, only to be pushed out in at most a few years, with a fragment of their army left. This was especially true for Napoleon, who entered Russia with an estimated 600,000 men, and left with less then 100,000.
