A Short Walk through Our Long History

75 - The Congress of Vienna


Listen Later

So I have to start this episode by saying the Congress of Vienna, well, it isn’t a very dramatic moment.  There’s no battles, no great drama, no moment of someone standing on the Mons Sacre declaring that they will not rest until Europe has this treaty finished.  It’s not that kind of moment.  But it a very important topic, and the agreements that will come out of the Congress of Vienna will shape Europe for the next 100 years or so.  

It was also responsible for temporarily shoring up the monarchies of Europe, but we’ll get to that in a minute.
