discuss The direct role of Britain​

Answer 1

please mark me as brainlist

Britain’s efforts to beat off the challenge of Napoleon in the wars of post-revolutionary France occurred in two phases. The first ended at Trafalgar, which ensured no French troops would set foot in the British Isles. The epitaph on this phase was provided by the First Sea Lord, Earl St. Vincent, who reportedly said, “I do not say the Frenchman will not come, I only say he will not come by sea.”

But much remained to be done. In the second phase, Napoleon sought to defeat Britain through indirect means. Instead of direct invasion, he adopted economic blockade.
