"The Congress of Vienna does not run, it dances." (Charles-Joseph, 7th Prince of Ligne)
After the Napoleonic Wars, European powers convened at the Congress of Vienna to reorder Europe. Lasting from 1814 to 1815, the Congress was renowned for its lavish banquets, balls, and intricate negotiations. The Congress sought to reestablish monarchies to increase the legitimacy between states and limit the scope of future conflicts. Moreover, a stable balance of power was deemed essential for securing peace. For this purpose, defeated France was included in negotiations.
