The Coalition Wars are the seven wars fought between coalitions of European countries and France (of Napoleon). In this period, there were also wars between individual countries and France and their allies. The wars are also known as the French Revolutionary Wars (1792-1802) and the Napoleonic Wars (1803-1815).

The seven Coalition Wars were:
