Napoleon officially abdicated after his defeat at Waterloo. He then left Paris for the Chateau de Malmaison, the home of his first wife Empress Joséphine de Beauharnais and the final place Napoleon ever lived, on June 25, 1815.
Some days later Napoleon was escorted to Rochefort where he thought he was going to sail to America in exile. When he got there he found that the two ships that were meant to take him to America were blocked by the British Royal Navy. Napoleon had been promised that he would be given permission for safe passage by the interim government to leave. That did not come. Napoleon was now far away from Paris. And Away from anyone that could help him.
