Panoramic view of the Waterloo battlefield from the top of the Lion Mound. The orientation table shows the positions of the armies during the battle: Napoleon with the French troops to the north, Wellington with British and allied forces to the south, and the green arrows indicate the decisive arrival of Blucher and Zieten Prussian troops. The cultivated fields of the Belgian countryside extend where two hundred years ago the fate of Europe was decided.
