The 19th century was marked by the uprising of the middle class and the spread of revolutionary ideas caused by the French Revolution, which ultimately led to the outbreak of war all across Europe. Once France was defeated, the Vienna Congress met to discuss the future and fate of Europe. The purpose of the Vienna Congress was to establish an international framework for continental cooperation and the maintenance of the balance of power. This aided the emperors of Russia, Austria as well as Prussia to focus on internal state issues instead of warfare among European countries. Internally, these emperors were concerned with the spread of revolutionary ideas, which originated in France and questioned the traditional authority. This research paper…
After watching a few commercials from this year’s Super Bowl Football game, the one that caught my eye the most was the 2012 Chevy Silverado Apocalypse. It was humorous, creative, and got the point across to the audience. Compared to the other commercials of this year’s Super Bowl those were the qualities that stuck out more so. The commercial effective with the way it played out and was well set up.…
The revolutions of 1848-9 impacted Austria’s previously dominant political power significantly. With the Austrian chancellor Metternich fleeing from power in March 1848 and revolutions resulting in chaos that threatened the extinction of any future Austrian influence, the crippling state’s main focus was to supress anything that could jeopardize its weakened power even further, rather than establishing any plans to increase dominance. However certain events such as the failure of the Erfurt union, the humiliation at Hesse-Cassel and the meeting at Olmutz tightened Austria’s grasp by an almost transfer of power from Prussia to Austria and enabled it to begin a process of re-establishing previously existing influence and attempt to supress any Prussian political advantages. Eventually Austria’s newly found power would be put to the test as it started to draw up future plans for an even greater Austrian hold than had previously existed prior the upheavals. These plans, such as a ‘zollunion’ and the establishment of alternative custom unions can truly reveal the extent of Austria’s influential survival.…

In the Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne, there are three main sinners. They are Hester Prynne, Arthur Dimmesdale, and Roger Chillingworth. These three people all commit terrible sins including revenge, adultery, and murder. Of these sinners, Roger Chillingworth is the guiltiest of them all, and this is because he never felt remorse for the terrible things he did throughout the novel. Chillingworth sins were aimed to bring pain and suffering to others where as Hester's and Dimmesdale's sin was a sin of passion, and was never meant to hurt anyone.…

In its immediate aftermath, the famous description, "le Congres ne marche pas; il danse" ('the Congress does not work; it dances') was often seen as the most accurate summary of the events taking place during the Congress of Vienna in 1815. Beneath the façade of all the reveling, this gathering of diplomats marked the end of the Napoleonic Wars and the turmoil they wrought on Europe, reshaping the order and structure of the continent in its legacy. With Austria, Great Britain, France, Prussia, and Russia playing the lead roles in the Congress while the rest of the world essentially watched, the two foremost concerns in Vienna were the containment of France, and the restoration of peace and balance of power to Europe. In redrawing the continent's political landscape after the defeat of Napoleonic France the previous spring, the members managed to successfully redesign Europe into a stable and secure block. The landmark settlement also represented a turning point in the history if international relations, with the Congress serving as more than the usual post-war divvying up of the spoils, but the states were collectively able to at least partially set aside their own agendas for the well being of Europe as a whole, which was most clearly demonstrated in the dealings of the victorious powers with France, as well as the Congress' handing of the Polish-Saxon Crisis. The commitment to maintaining the balance of power led to the formation of the Concert of Europe, predecessor to the United Nations, and further solidified the long-term well-being of Europe. In doing so, one of the most noticeable results in its aftermath was a major conservative victory over liberal/nationalists, evident with the effort towards crushing future rebellions, reinstating monarchies, and maintenance of the status quo. Overall, the Congress of Vienna successfully achieved all of its goals and created a new political environment on the continent and throughout the world, that resulted in forty…
