Polish language was used for church gatherings and all religious instructions. As a result, a large number of priests and bishops were put in jail or sent to Siberia by Russian authorities as punishment for their refusal to preach in Russian. The use of Polish came to be seen as a symbol of the struggle against Russian dominance.

Amit Kumar answered |
Treaty of Vienna of 1815 was signed to undo most of the changes that had come about in Europe during the Napoleonic Wars. The Bourbon dynasty, which had been deposed during the French Revolution, was restored to power, and France lost the territories it had annexed under Napoleon. A series of states were set up on France’s boundaries to prevent French expansion in the future. The German confederation of 39 states that had been set up by Napoleon was left untouched. The main intention was to restore the monarchies that had been overthrown by Napoleon and create a new conservative order in Europe.

Background of the Treaty of Vienna
The Treaty of Vienna, signed in 1815, was a pivotal agreement that aimed to reshape Europe following the Napoleonic Wars. Its primary focus was to restore stability and order, particularly through the reinstatement of traditional monarchies that had been disrupted during the revolutionary period.
Key Objectives of the Treaty
- Restoration of Monarchies: The treaty aimed to reinstate the monarchs who had been dethroned during the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars. This was seen as essential for maintaining a balance of power in Europe and preventing the rise of any single dominant state.
- Establishment of a Balance of Power: The great powers of Europe, including Austria, Prussia, Russia, and Britain, sought to ensure that no single nation could become too powerful, which could lead to future conflicts.
- Territorial Adjustments: The treaty involved significant territorial changes to reinforce the power of monarchies and create a buffer against France, thus preventing future French aggression.
Significance of the Restoration
Restoring monarchies was significant because:
- It represented a rejection of revolutionary ideals that promoted republicanism and nationalism.
- It aimed to create a conservative order that would last, leading to nearly a century of relative peace in Europe until World War I.
In summary, the Treaty of Vienna's primary purpose was to restore the monarchies that had been displaced, ensuring a conservative political landscape across Europe and establishing a framework for international relations that prioritized stability over revolutionary change.

Ujwal Sengupta answered |
During the early nineteenth century, Europe were closely allied to the ideology of liberalism. In reference to economy this liberalism denotes freedom of market, less restrictions of state on the movement of goods and capitals. To get rid of these economic problems that was the main demand of the new emerged middle class.
Existence of countless small principalities, different currencies, number of customs barriers created obstacles to economic exchange and growth for the new commercial classes. To sort out that problem Prussia including with most of the German states formed a customs union or Zollverein in 1834.

The Zollverein abolished tariff barriers, reduced number of currencies, create network of railways for fast and heavy mobility. So a single solution for all these economic problems was known by the name of Zollverein.

Both assertion and reason are false. Mazzini’s relentless opposition to monarchy and his vision of democratic republics frightened the conservatives. Italy had to be forged into a single unified republic within a wider alliance of nations/ It could not be a patchwork of small states and kingdoms. Thus both assertion and reason are false.

In 1815, representatives of the conservative European powers were Britain, Russia, Prussia and Austria .
Conservatism as a political ideology arose after the defeat of Napoleon in 1815 at the Battle of Waterloo. The conservative regimes :
- Were autocratic
- Were intolerant to criticism and dissent
- Adopted the censorship of press for curbing the liberal ideals
- Discouraged any questions that challenged their legitimacy
The contribution of Conservatism stands for the preservation of the traditional institutions of state and society such as the monarchy, the church, social hierarchies and family along with the modern changes introduced by Napoleon.

The Serfs were bound to the land of a particular lord and could not migrate without his permission. Serfdom was a condition in medieval Europe in which a tenant farmer was bound to a hereditary plot of land and to the will of his landlord. The vast majority of serfs in medieval Europe obtained their subsistence by cultivating a plot of land that was owned by a lord.

Young Italy was a secret society founded by Giuseppe Mazzini in 1831 with the aim of creating a united and independent Italian nation. It played a significant role in the Italian unification movement, also known as the Risorgimento. The society was based on Mazzini's vision of Italy as a unified republic, free from foreign domination and oppression.
Mazzini's Vision of Italy:
Giuseppe Mazzini, an Italian politician, journalist, and activist, envisioned a united Italy that would be governed by a republican government. He believed in the principles of democracy, freedom, and national self-determination. Mazzini saw Italy as a diverse country with a rich cultural heritage that should be united under a common identity. His vision aimed to liberate Italy from foreign rule and establish a nation where all Italians could live in harmony.
Formation of Young Italy:
In order to promote his vision and mobilize support, Mazzini founded Young Italy. The society aimed to unite young Italians from different regions and social classes in the pursuit of Italian independence. It sought to create a sense of national identity and instill a spirit of patriotism among its members. Young Italy organized lectures, published newspapers, and distributed pamphlets to spread its ideas and recruit supporters.
Objectives and Activities:
The main objective of Young Italy was to achieve Italian unification through revolutionary means. It called for the establishment of a democratic republic, where all Italians would have equal rights and opportunities. The society believed that only a united Italy could effectively resist foreign domination and secure the freedom of its people.
Young Italy conducted various activities to achieve its goals. It organized clandestine meetings, disseminated revolutionary literature, and encouraged its members to participate in political activism. It also supported secret societies and revolutionary movements in other European countries, with the hope of inspiring similar uprisings and revolutions in Italy.
Impact and Legacy:
Young Italy played a crucial role in shaping the nationalist sentiment and political consciousness in Italy. It inspired a generation of young Italians to actively participate in the struggle for independence and unification. The society's emphasis on nationalism and republican ideals influenced the thinking of many Italian revolutionaries and leaders, including Giuseppe Garibaldi and Camillo di Cavour.
While Young Italy's revolutionary activities did not directly lead to immediate success in achieving Italian unification, it contributed significantly to the broader movement for national unity. The society's efforts laid the groundwork for future developments, such as the formation of secret societies, the emergence of political organizations, and the eventual unification of Italy in 1861.
In conclusion, Young Italy was a secret society founded by Giuseppe Mazzini with the aim of promoting Italian nationalism and independence. It sought to unite young Italians under a common vision of a united and democratic Italy. Although it did not achieve immediate success, Young Italy played a pivotal role in shaping the nationalist movement and laying the foundations for the eventual unification of Italy.

The society's emphasis on nationalism and republican ideals influenced the thinking of many Italian revolutionaries and leaders, including Giuseppe Garibaldi and Camillo di Cavour.
While Young Italy's revolutionary activities did not directly lead to immediate success in achieving Italian unification, it contributed significantly to the broader movement for national unity. The society's efforts laid the groundwork for future developments, such as the formation of secret societies, the emergence of political organizations, and the eventual unification of Italy in 1861.
In conclusion, Young Italy was a secret society founded by Giuseppe Mazzini with the aim of promoting Italian nationalism and independence. It sought to unite young Italians under a common vision of a united and democratic Italy. Although it did not achieve immediate success, Young Italy played a pivotal role in shaping the nationalist movement and laying the foundations for the eventual unification of Italy.

Frédéric Sorrieu’s print depicts a utopian vision of a world where all nations coexist peacefully in democracy and fraternity. It shows a procession of nations, each identified by their flags and costumes, moving towards liberty. The image symbolizes hope for unity, freedom, and democracy, even for nations like Germany, which were not yet unified at the time.

1.There were many state imposed restrictions on the movement of goods, capital and people across different places.
2.There was no freedom of markets.
3.For example, in the German confederation of 39 states set up by Napolean, all the states had different system of weights and measures and different currencies. Since duties were charged on the basis of weight and measurement of the goods, the process of levying duties was very time consuming.

Abhay Mukherjee answered |
An event that mobilised nationalist feelings among the educated elite across Europe was the Greek war of independence. Greece had been part of the Ottoman Empire since the fifteenth century. The growth of revolutionary nationalism in Europe sparked off a struggle for independence amongst the Greeks which began in 1821. Nationalists in Greece got support from other Greeks living in exile and also from many West Europeans who had sympathies for ancient Greek culture. Poets and artists lauded Greece as the cradle of European civilisation and mobilised public opinion to support its struggle against a Muslim empire. The English poet Lord Byron organised funds and later went to fight in the war, where he died of fever in 1824. Finally, the Treaty of Constantinople of 1832 recognised Greece as an independent nation.

1. Equality before the law did not necessarily stand for universal suffrage.
2. In revolutionary France, which marked the first political experiment in liberal democracy, the right to vote and to get elected was granted exclusively to property-owning men.
3. Men without property and all women were excluded from political rights. Only for a brief period under the Jacobins did all adult males enjoy suffrage.
4. However, the Napoleonic Code went back to limited suffrage and reduced women to the status of a minor, subject to the authority of fathers and husbands.

The incorrect option is: 'When America sneezes' Metternich once remarked, 'the rest of Europe catches cold.'
Explanation:
-
The first upheaval took place in France in July 1830:
- Correct. The July Revolution of 1830 in France led to the overthrow of the Bourbon King Charles X and the establishment of a constitutional monarchy under Louis Philippe.
-
The Bourbon Kings who had been restored to power during the conservative reaction after 1815, were now overthrown by liberal revolutionaries who installed a constitutional monarchy with Louis Philippe at its head:
- Correct. After the defeat of Napoleon in 1815, the Bourbon monarchy was restored, but it was overthrown during the July Revolution of 1830, leading to the rule of Louis Philippe.
-
'When America sneezes' Metternich once remarked, 'the rest of Europe catches cold.':
- Incorrect. The original quote attributed to Austrian Chancellor Metternich is "When France sneezes, Europe catches a cold." This phrase reflects the idea that political events in France often had a significant impact on the rest of Europe.
-
The July Revolution sparked an uprising in Brussels which led to Belgium breaking away from the United Kingdom of the Netherlands:
- Correct. The July Revolution in France did indeed inspire the Belgian Revolution of 1830, which led to Belgium gaining independence from the United Kingdom of the Netherlands.
Therefore, option 3 is incorrect because Metternich's remark referred to France, not America.

The Τreaty of Constantinople was the product of the Constantinople Conference which opened in February 1832 with the participation of the Great Powers (Britain, France and Russia) on the one hand and the Ottoman Empire on the other. The factors which shaped the treaty included the refusal of Leopold of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha (the future King of Belgium), to assume the Greek throne. He was not at all satisfied with the Aspropotamos-Zitouni borderline, which replaced the more favorable Arta-Volos line considered by the Great Powers earlier.
The withdrawal of Leopold as a candidate for the throne of Greece, and the July Revolution in France, delayed the final settlement of the frontiers of the new kingdom until a new government was formed in the United Kingdom. Lord Palmerston, who took over as British Foreign Secretary, agreed to the Arta-Volos borderline. However, the secret note on Crete, which the Bavarian plenipotentiary communicated to the Courts of the United Kingdom, France and Russia, bore no fruit.
Under the protocol signed on 7 May 1832 between Bavaria and the protecting Powers, and basically dealing with the way in which the Regency was to be managed until Otto reached his majority (while also concluding the second Greek loan, for a sum of 2,400,000 sterling), Greece was defined as an independent kingdom, with the Arta-Volos line as its northern frontier. The Ottoman Empire was indemnified in the sum of 40,000,000 piastres for the loss of the territory. The borders of the Kingdom were reiterated in the London Protocol of 30 August 1832 signed by the Great Powers, which ratified the terms of the Constantinople Arrangement in connection with the border between Greece and the Ottoman Empire and marked the end of the Greek War of Independence creating modern Greece as an independent state free of the Ottoman Empire.

The unification of Italy involved many other leaders, including Cavour and Victor Emmanuel II. Therefore, while the reason is true, it does not serve as the correct explanation for the assertion.

Understanding Nationalism in the Mid-Nineteenth Century
Nationalism emerged as a potent force in the mid-nineteenth century, characterized by intense pride in one's nation and the belief that each nation should govern itself. This fervent ideology significantly shaped global politics and social dynamics during that era.
Key Aspects of Nationalism
- Definition and Importance: Nationalism is the ideology that prioritizes the interests and culture of one's nation above others. It fosters a strong sense of identity among citizens, often leading to the belief that their nation is superior.
- Intensification: In the mid-1800s, nationalism became increasingly intense and narrow-minded. This shift led to an "us vs. them" mentality, where loyalty to the nation overshadowed international cooperation and understanding.
Consequences of Nationalism
- Intolerance Among Nations: As nations focused on their own interests, intolerance grew. Countries began to view each other with suspicion, resulting in heightened tensions and conflicts.
- Territorial Competition: Nationalist fervor spurred countries to compete aggressively for territorial expansion. Nations sought to assert their dominance by acquiring colonies and resources, leading to rivalries and wars.
Impact on Global Relations
- Conflict and Rivalry: The competition driven by nationalism contributed to significant conflicts, including wars and colonial struggles. Nations prioritized territorial claims over diplomacy.
- Legacy: The intense nationalism of this period laid the groundwork for future conflicts, including World War I, showcasing how unchecked national pride can have dire consequences.
In summary, nationalism in the mid-nineteenth century became a narrow-minded and intense ideology, fostering intolerance and competition among nations for territorial control, ultimately shaping the course of global history.

Key Objective of the Treaty of Vienna (1815)
The Treaty of Vienna, signed in 1815, was pivotal in reshaping Europe after the Napoleonic Wars. Its primary objective was to restore stability and order by reinstating monarchies that had been overthrown by Napoleon's conquests.
Restoration of Monarchies
- The treaty aimed to reverse the changes made during the Napoleonic era.
- Monarchs who had been deposed, such as Louis XVIII in France, were reinstated to their thrones.
- This restoration was crucial for maintaining a balance of power in Europe.
Preventing Future Conflicts
- By restoring monarchies, the Treaty sought to curtail the spread of revolutionary ideas and liberalism.
- The leaders at Vienna believed that a stable monarchy would prevent the rise of future upheavals.
Balance of Power
- The treaty established a new political order in Europe, emphasizing the importance of a balance of power among the great powers.
- This was intended to create a system where no single nation could dominate the continent as France had under Napoleon.
