Napoleon's victory at the Battle of Aboukir in 1799 helped restore his reputation after the defeat at Acre, with the Ottoman army decisively crushed. However, news from Europe of mounting threats against France from the Second Coalition forced Napoleon to leave Egypt. On August 23, he secretly departed for France, leaving General Kléber in command. Despite initial success, the French expedition to Egypt ultimately ended in failure, with the remaining forces surrendering in 1801. However, the discovery of the Rosetta Stone during the campaign laid the foundation for modern Egyptology.
