@WolfytheWolf5667 It is believed Wellington had read books about Roman techniques and got the idea of the squares from it according to his life story.
pretty much every trick in history is copied. Napoleon's techniques are used today which is from Britain from Rome etc. We've all copied each other in one way or another.
@DukoOsshiiKhan
ney thought that the british casualties being removed was a retreat, so he charged the centre with his cav

@DavBlc7 Square formation was a common defensive tactic that every modern army then was trained to do not just the British

also, what's weird is that this battlefield never had anything to do with "Waterloo"

The British were not the only ones to form squares - The Romans did have similar square formation somewhere in a battle against the tribes.
I think Wellington may have learned about the Romans forming squares so may have had to use it.
