French invasion of Russia
06/24/1812 AD invaded

The first wave of the multinational Grande Armée crossed the Niemen into Russia.

Through a series of long forced marches, Napoleon pushed his army of almost half a million people rapidly through Western Russia, now Belarus, in an attempt to destroy the separated Russian armies of Barclay de Tolly and Pyotr Bagration who amounted to around 180,000–220,000 at this time.
