0: 35 this is a completely false characterisation. Britain already had all of those things in our charictaristically moderate fashion and peasantry hadn't really been a substantial class since the industrial revolution and had been done away with. Peasantry had only been a class on paper for about 100 years before then. The Congress was to prevent the nationalist and liberals from revolting for at minimum autonomy and constitutionalism respectively

obviously im going to point out the major error of france still being in control of the german provences and the lowlands, even though they were all given back to their previous owners, as goes for chunks of french colonies going to britain (india especially. pretty major error considering the fact that this gave britain a huge boost and the ability to eclipse its colonial rivals.

Balance of Power concerns go back to at least 1688, when the League of Augsburg formed to oppose France's expansion because it would upset the balance of power. Then one of the reasons France and Spain were willing to back the American colonies (and nobody was willing to back the British) was because British victory in 1763 had tilted the balance of power too far in favor of the British.

I guess it makes sense to develop a Great Man concept after Napoleon did so much for no particular reason other than his own personal ambition. And to a lesser extent, the dictatory arbitrary rule of the people who preceded him like Robespierre or succeeded him like Metternich also emphasized the power of a -great man's- whims.

So what your saying is that today's socialism is in essence the ruling class bucking against the exercise of individualism on the part of the middle class. It makes sense when upon the observation that the movement of socialism in thos country is backed by the elitists.

Wow, this is truly the most mind-opening episode for me. You can really see the seeds of what becomes our own reactionary extremism and social revolution in this day and age.
