Congress of Vienna

Basically our task was to choose what decision we thought the Congress of Vienna should make for each problem given.  I thought it was a good way to not only sharpen our decision making skills but also learn about the Congress of Vienna, how it functioned and what decisions they faced as well.

The Holy Alliance was one way the major political powers of the Congress of Vienna made sure their power was not endangered.  Initiated by Czar Alexander of Russia, it stated that monarchs had the right to rule and any revolution would be treason against god.  This prevented many people from revolting because they did not want to upset their holy figure. 

I think that they made the right decision  because afterwords there was not many repercussions  that drastically effected the world.
