Eden rejecting the proposed Franco-British Union in 1957 for favour of establishing the EEC, which paved the way for a Franco-German cooperative institution in Europe, and isolating Britain from both Europe and the former Empire.

Acre is in Palestine. Napoleon reached Acre and attempted to take it but the British were ferrying in supplies and reinforcements. The French could defeat the Turks in any pitched battle (look up Mount Tabor, off the top of my head less than a thousand French defeating 35000 Turks) but they eventually wasted away from disease and hunger. Napoleon couldn't take Acre and was forced to abandon Egypt.
He later said of the British admiral who commanded the relief fleet,
"If it weren't for that man I'd be Emperor of the East."
