Excerpt from The Great Events by Famous Historians, Vol. 16: A Comprehensive and Readable Account of the World's History, Emphasizing the More Important Events, and Presenting These as Complete Narratives in the Master-Words of the Most Eminent Historians
Such constitutions as had been granted by lesser monarchs, in the first moments of enthusiasm or necessity, were withdrawn under Metternich's protection. Bavaria, it is true, and a few lesser German States still retained some shadow of representative government. SO also did France, but all real power there was in the hands of the reactionaries; and thus the year 1820 saw Europe once more in the grasp of an absolutism as complete in its authority as before 1789, and grown far more watchful and wise and cautious.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book details the story of European power and politics in the early 19th century, approximately 1815-1848. The author focuses specifically on the democratic and liberal stirrings of that period against entrenched royal and aristocratic rule and the efforts of the major powers of the time, principally the European members of the "Holy Alliance" or reactionary powers, including Austria, Russia, and Prussia, to suppress or manage the movement. The author shows how personalities such as Metternich, the Austrian foreign minister, used military force, political maneuvering, and ideological arguments to maintain peace and monarchical order in Europe. The book further examines the contradictions of this era, as the reactionary powers that mobilized to suppress democratic movements did so at a time of increasing material prosperity, the expansion of education, and the explosion of nationalism. Hence, this book uses the example of the Holy Alliance in the years after Napoleon to explore how far repressive measures can go to thwart the will of peoples seeking a voice in their own governance This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
