The Congress of Vienna tried to restore the old regime as far as possible, as it was before Napoleon stormed through and set up his new codes (and to some extent, democracy). Titles, lands, and monarchies were restored. Since this was the case, monarchs of course took back the “freedoms” gained previously. What do you think the effects of these were?

On the other hand, the Congress is also praised for averting general warfare in Europe for about 100 years.

The balance of power mostly concerns five major powers (Great Britain, Austria, Prussia, Russia, Fance). A note of interest, which can be regarded as a social effect (though it didn’t much affect it), but the Congress condemned the slave trade.
