Comments:
During the Napoleonic wars in Europe, the Netherlands fell to France, as did its colony in the East Indies.
1810-11 were turbulent years for Java, starting under French rule with the puppet government of the Kingdom of Holland under Louis Napoleon (brother of Napoleon I and father of Napoleon III) until his abdication in 1810 in favor of his second son, Napoleon Louis Bonaparte.
