What happened around the Atlantic after the great ideals of the Congress of Vienna? von Metternich Description The Congress of Vienna convened as Napoleon was falling from power. The big question was how to create stability in Europe after so much had been shattered by the Napoleonic Wars. Attendees to the Congress believed the real key to stability was to strengthen the monarchies and restrict the power of France. Just what happened in the wake of the Congress was something no one imagined.
